8 volt is a bandade fix for a problem 6 volt system, not the right way to fix. 12 volts is also a bandade fix unless you fix the other problems also. My guess is that you have either bad or small battery cables and or a weak starter. Battery cables need to be 0 or 00 size cables, if there auto type cvables there way to small. It could also be that your starter is getting weak and needs to be rebuilt. To switch it over to 12 volts you need an alternator, wireing for the alternator a ballast resister and to change the ground from + to - ground. Cost is up around $100-150 to do this and that doesn't include a 12 volt battery.
