Thanks!
You are not reading low! It's AC man, while one of the terminals is in the positive cycle the other is in the negative cycle. Reading across both you are producing 38 VAC.

Most of us have 220 volts AC coming into our house from the electric company. If you look inside your fuse/breaker box you will see that the line coming in has a red, a black, and a white wire. The white is the neutral (no voltage) return for the AC. The read and the black provide 110 volts each when measured to the white, but 220 across black and red.

Your stator sounds ok to me.
