I've been running them for years with no issues, I have heard that they are under new ownership and they are now having some issues, specifically with the OMC stuff

The reason I asked , two years ago I almost broke down with my boat,we got her started but she ran bad, missing and no power. I changed the switch boxes and one switch box was ten years old ,the stator was replaced about three years ago I always had issues with stators I was advised to remove the flywheel cover , and I did I did take her out only once since having that issue and she ran great ,but it's in the back of my mind that it will happen when I'm out again in your opinion do you think I fixed the problem?

always replace switch boxes together, one bad one can fry the new good one. Stator output usually works till it doesn't, you don't get second chances with it. Rule of thumb, one cylinder no spark, its a coil, two cylinders no spark, two bad coils or a trigger, three cylinders no spark, its a switch box, no cylinders spark, either key switch/kill switch/harness or stator

add to that, always look for melted potting material or overheated wires on the stator, burnt places, etc. easiest test on a stator is to check ohms, if its open circuit, its bad, if it has continuity to ground, its bad. Check output takes a DVA meter or adaptor
