CDI Electronics 173-3837 Johnson Evinrude Stator, 6 Cylinder 9 Amp, Replaces OMC 583837, Fits 1989-1991 150 HP CX/JL/TL/TX
The CDI Electronics 173-3837 is a 6 Cylinder, 9 Amp stator built as a direct replacement for the ignition charging system on Johnson Evinrude 150 HP outboard engines. A stator works with the flywheel and magnets on an outboard motor to generate the electrical current that charges the battery and powers the ignition system. When a stator begins to fail, common symptoms include an engine that will not run, stalls out frequently, misfires, or a battery that will not hold a charge. Replacing a worn or failed stator with the CDI 173-3837 restores reliable charging output and ignition performance to the affected engine.
This stator is engineered specifically for 6 Cylinder Johnson Evinrude powerheads rated at 150 HP within the CX, JL, TL, and TX model engine designations, as well as 1989-1990 9 Amp commercial engines. It is a direct cross-reference for OMC part number 583837, so it installs as a like-for-like replacement without modification. The unit weighs 2.5 pounds.
