CDI Electronics 174-9610K2 Mercury Mariner Outboard Stator, 6 Cylinder 40 Amp, Fits 105-225 HP 1989-2000

The CDI Electronics 174-9610K2 is a 40 Amp replacement stator built for 6-cylinder Mercury and Mariner outboard engines. A stator supplies the electrical energy that powers an outboard's ignition system, working together with the flywheel magnets to generate the current that charges the boat's batteries. When a stator fails, the engine can refuse to start, stall out repeatedly, misfire, or stop charging the battery entirely, so a healthy stator is essential to reliable running and a charged battery bank.

Outboard stators are produced in a range of outputs, from 6 Amp up to 40 Amp depending on the engine's electrical demand. The 174-9610K2 is the 40 Amp version, matched to larger 6-cylinder Mercury/Mariner powerheads that need higher charging capacity. CDI builds this stator with tighter windings and no nylon overcoating, which helps reduce the chances of the unit overheating in service. The windings are also insulated with a high-temperature compound to add durability and help extend the working life of the stator and the engine's charging system. The electrical components used in the stator are manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials, which is important given the stator's constant exposure to a marine engine environment.

This stator is designed as a direct fit for the 6-cylinder Mercury and Mariner outboard models listed below, covering multiple horsepower ratings from the same engine family and model years.

Frequently Asked Questions

What amperage output does the CDI 174-9610K2 stator produce? This stator produces a 40 Amp output, built for the higher charging demand of 6-cylinder Mercury and Mariner outboard engines.

Which Mercury/Mariner outboards fit the 174-9610K2 stator? The 174-9610K2 fits 6-cylinder Mercury/Mariner outboards rated at 105 HP, 135 HP, 140 HP, 150 HP, 175 HP, 200 HP, and 225 HP, model years 1989-2000.

What OEM part numbers does the CDI 174-9610K2 cross-reference? It cross-references OEM numbers 398-9610A3, 398-9610A5, 398-9610A6, 398-9610A9, 398-9610A14, 398-9610A17, 398-9610A19, 398-9610A22, 398-9610A24, 398-9610A33, 18-5875, 18-5876, and 9-25512.

How much does this stator weigh? The CDI 174-9610K2 stator weighs 5.1 pounds.

How do I know if my outboard's stator has failed? A failing stator can cause the engine to not run, stall out frequently, miss fire, or fail to charge the battery, since the stator is what supplies power to the ignition system and battery charging circuit.

Is the 174-9610K2 the same as a lower-amp Mercury stator? No. Outboard stators are built in outputs ranging from 6 Amp to 40 Amp, and the 174-9610K2 is the 40 Amp, 6-cylinder version, not a lower-output unit meant for smaller engines.

Does the 174-9610K2 have a nylon overcoating on its windings? No, the CDI 174-9610K2 uses tighter windings with no nylon overcoating, which helps reduce the chances of the stator overheating.

What protects the windings on this stator from heat damage? The 174-9610K2 is insulated with a high-temperature compound designed to add durability and extend the working life of the stator.

Will the 174-9610K2 work on a 4-cylinder Mercury outboard? No, this stator is built specifically for 6-cylinder Mercury/Mariner outboards and is not the correct part for 4-cylinder engines.

What is the UPC for the CDI 174-9610K2 stator? The UPC for the CDI Electronics 174-9610K2 Mercury Mariner stator is 736983852496.

What are the electrical components on this stator made from? The CDI 174-9610K2 uses electrical components made from corrosion-resistant materials to hold up in a marine engine environment.
