There is good reason to use an anylizer, not a volt meter to measure the voltage. ZZAAPP. Not a good idea. Plug voltage varies from 5000-25000 volts based on demand, not supply. Thus there is no substantive difference between different primary voltages (6-8-12). Capacitive Discharge Ignition can be an exception, in that it generates spark in a totally different scheme. Not too many CDI systems are used in Farmalls. These CDI systems are not electronic ignition as we know them. Opening up the plug gap, to assist the ignition of fuel is good today (especially because fuel has far less deposit forming additives). The voltages are higher as a result, but unless the secondary (high Voltage) parts break down, starting and operation will improve. I hope this helps, JimN
