The 3 yellow wires run down to the stator and become seperate coils for charging etc so no I can't see it mattering as long as you hook them up correctly up by the regulator ie the 3 yellows in line (can't remember if it was the bottom row or the top row but you at least will know that I hope).

It doesn't matter, as long as each yellow wire from the stator is connected to a separate yellow wire on the regulator.

In that case you may have connector issues due to their age.
http://www.oregonmotorcycleparts.com/connectors.html has replacement connectors to renew our harnesses.

If you removed the harness and treated all the connectors with Electric-grease you should not have to reclean the connectors again?...you did treat all the connectors with Dilectric grease didn't you!
