Thanks, I had forgotten about full/half wave.
After reading the reminder about trigger voltage I went back to make sure I wasn't confusing my trigger and power voltage readings. Nope, it really was the power to the CDI that was <1v.
I ordered the puller from Amazon and it will be here on the 19th.
I made some progress on identifying the stator. Taotao.us points to Eagle ATV for parts. Eagle lists
this 8 pole stator for the Evo 150 and most other Taotao 150s. It does have the correct 3-pin connector + two barrel connectors like mine.
