We're here to help- that being said won't make us feel sorry for your friend's "impatience" or "poor choices" when you could've asked us for some help from people who's been there and done that. We all understand finances and we're here to provide opinions/options for the most effective economical route to take. There's a reason they sent a voltage regulator so it would match the stators out-put. If your stator isn't toast it would be a miracle. Smoking electronics nearly always spells a short, with the regulator shorted out the stator is getting shorted too.The idea that an air cleaner isn't necessary is crazy- he just spent $250. on that motor and a $20. air cleaner isn't in the budget, or a $20. sprocket. Hammering on the output shaft has no doubt caused some damage- it may not show up tomorrow but it will show up. Like Tom said the sprocket is going to spin on the shaft- No air cleaner even for a short period of time around dirt spells clogged NEW carb and potentially smoking or blown-up NEW engine.I'm done busting your chop's. Post a pic of your engine wiring harness,new voltage regulator and plug end. Let's see the sprockets-engine and axle for alignment purposes.
