I highly doubt it has anything to do with it. It's the charging system side that drips out, the ignition charge coil, and S.L.O.W. coils are part of the stator, but sealed seperately. And these aren't like Mercs with a low speed and a high speed charge coil, they use just 1 coil to charge the CDI unit, and another coil for the S.L.O.W. system that controls the rev limiter and other safety functions. I had a stator fail on me once, engine ran great all the way up to the 6700 limiter, but it started like crap and would randomnly lose cylinders at idle, but all came right back to life once I gave it some throttle. If you're getting 225 volts during craking, your stator is most likely fine.
