When I took it apart today I found that the coils looks like new but the magnets (all 5) inside the sprocket came loose and were end to end but are not damaged. Could those magnets be giving a false ac reading?
YES
I was wanting advice on what glue to use or should I get a new sprocket with the magnets already attached. Would prefer to use some type of glue to save money if possible.
YES-----reattach them. i've done it many times thru the decades. and here's how:
1-clean inside of your rotor. glass bead with plastic media or walnut shell if possible. if not possible then just lightly sand with 1500 till it's pretty. BE DAMN SURE TO mark on the rotor where the magnets go prior to doing this.
2-do the same to the back side of the magnets.
3-clean rotor and magnet surfaces with either brake cleaner or contact cleaner.
4-mix up equal parts of JB WELD.....NOT the quick setting....the 24 hour setting type. one tube black goop...other tube white goop. that's the sh*t right there!
5-apply liberal amount to each surface...attach....clamp with little C-clamps or improvise as required. the light clamping force is the key.
6-let sit @ room temp for 48 hours to fully cure.
NOTE: new stator lists for $392.98.....cost of JB Weld $3.99 this is a savings of approx. $389. please feel free to paypal me the difference for this sage advice. use friends/family tab so no fee on my end.
