Hey,
Ummm, okay...
So the I'm assuming your saying the left hand side of the engine casing (housing the Flywheel) has filled with water.
First thing I would ask is how did this come to happen?
As the stator is in the same chamber (the 11 point, wire wrapped thing) i would have thought submerging that for any period of time would not do it any good atall...
First step, start easy. Check the HT lead and sparkplug (easiest and most obvious). That aside, as the alternator somehow got flooded, we should move on in that direction...
Get hold of a multi-meter,
you will find a 6 point plug in the servo tray "plug box" that leads down to the engine. Disconnect this and check all cables for continuity and also resistance (you should get resistance reading of around 0.7).
The next step is to check the cables that come out next to the previously mentioned ones as these go to your coils and are responsible for the spark.
That would make a start, this will tell you if your stator is serviceable as well as starting to track down the no spark issue...
Also, will just mention, try using the spell check. I'm surprised you haven't been abused over that yet heh.
Best regards

good ideas but it's better to disconnect the alternator stator , then dry it (live it for a while on one of your home radiator) then check it with a multimeter . look my file https://www.geneva-racing.ch/~alains/NSRtips.doc then look chapter about ignition bugs
but working on that and even if you win you must find why you've got water in the casing (starter seal ? ................) ____________________ the worst day fishing is better than the best day working |
