The stator creates the AC current that goes to the Rectifier, changes to DC and then charges the battery. I wouldn't think the stator would be the first place to look for this problem. How did you track it to the stator?

I would think you could just jumper the same +12V "feed" line to the + sides of both coils to see if the spark will go.

i was checking the ignighter. and while jumping it found that every thing but the magnitic pickup was working. i might be wrong about some part names i mostly work on cars.

A bad pickup/sensor will certainly make the spark go dead if it fails.
