Thank you for your replies!

Yes it is the green stator #3996A7. Unfortunately the only CDI retailer in my area wants 45 dollars for a set of two insulators and delivery time is unknown. I have tried insulating the screws through the insulating blocks with heatshrink tubing. And replaced all the points wiring.

The only manual I have is the Clymers shop manual and that doesn’t tell me much more.

If I look at the PDF from crosbyman, I suppose using a modern multimeter to perform the test will yield different resistances, as the current through and therefore the applied voltage to the varistor is much lower than from an old analog meter, so I’d expect a higher resistance reading, fingers crossed…

I also had to sand the points, as they were heavily pitted, could their surface be too rough now? (New set is 100 dollars…)
