Ok so it runs well off the charger at first then stumbles and dies. I talked to a buddy and he suspects the rectifier. That's fine because I ordered the new type from Oregon Cycles a while back. What I thought might be the rectifier aft of the air cleaner turned out to be the switch item#15. Went on a search inside and my setup seems to be opposite of the parts manual. The Coil is forward and above the air cleaner and the rectifier seems to be in the "nose" of the frame. So I can plan ahead, do I need to take off the carburetor and then the rectifier is ahead of that up in the frame? Is the bolt for the rectifier the bolt on the LH side of the frame under the tank? Is this the best way to go about swapping out the part? Is there enough slack in the wiring to replace it this way or are there other things to take loose? Thanks!
