Mace, I doubt you can tell with an ohmmeter. My best guess is a 12 volt may have more total field winding resistance but the armature is so low resistance I doubt you can tell much with an ohmmeter. Ive also heard of the black n red tag to tell if 6 or 12 volt but cant say fer sure. The 6 volt has closed spaced commutator bars but again, its hard to tell over the net or unless you have 2 units side by side.

Ive used 6 volt gennys to charge 12 by simply using a 12 volt VR, its NOT the best or engineering correct, but it works to some degree. Basically a genny dont know its voltage, its increased by turning it faster or pumping more field current through it which is why a 6 can charge 12 or a 12 charge at 6 in theory.
