Mark, I have two H's on 6 volts and they spin over fast, your M should too. There are a lot of M's around starting on 6 volts easily. What did you test on the starter? A starter may work on the bench but be drawing too much juice. The end bushings should not allow any play or binding, brushes should be in good condition , sometimes the armature needs to be turned, or someone has jumped the starter, held it on too long, heated it up and cooked some wiring. I'm only suggesting what may cause a starter to work poorly. The cables you have put on should be 6 volt cables, the 12 volt ones are thin and do not conduct 6 volts well. You stated you have checked your generator, a 6 volt generator should be putting out 8+ volts or it won't charge a battery fully, is the battery testing 6 volts? With what you say you have done , the M should turn over easily. My next thought would be how does it run when it starts, if it is way off timing it would be harder to turn over. I'm going to leave it there and you can let us know about what tests were done and how..others will have opinions and maybe collectively we can help you...Mike in Exeter Ontario
