    Pickup coils go bad. Lighting coils burn up due to overload. The 85 stators are different than the 86/87. Why do you ask?

    you can swap one year on another one but you must have the matching flywheel/rotor

    ATC's answer is the more correct one.

    I've put an 85 stator into an 86 before. Just measure the O.D. of the old stator and make sure the "new" one matches it.
