I had a two stroke Merc 90 and a 115 in the early 1990s, and they both
ran very well. Each of them blew stators,


My 75 Mariner/Merc blew a stator too (basically the same engine as the
90, or a Yammy mid range) I guess it was just a design flaw.


That's the way it was, too. even though they were low output, they
were a primitive construction and due to the vibration of the engine
itself, the windings would evenually short against each other by
rubbing the enamel coated insulation off themselves and call it a day.
Things are much improved by now.



That's the first explanation I've seen for the problem...thanks.
