I read a good many post here on stator issue's.
Let me make sure I got this straight......Here is my story :
I just bought a 85 vmax in super condition.....except on the test drive,
A wire smoked and proceeded to melt the plug on the stator/rectifier.
Seller promptly snatched the hot wire from plug......
Dude I bought it from said it needed a rectifier which I bought and installed, Yea I used the half melted plug (not smart) and it proceeded to melt again,so......with that said,
From what I have read here....The sole problem is a bad connection from the plug, Stator and rectifier are more then likely fine.
So if I solder the connections.....Im good ..Right ??
Would anything else cook the plug.....Wires heat up ??
Thanks for any and all help
