The two 6 volts wll give ya more cranking amps then two twelves . Now this is the way it is on the 806 ,If they are in good shape they will start down to 0 with no help . The first thing i would check is the starter as if it is not turning fast enough then she wil turn hard . Next i woud check the timming . Then have the injectors checked . Next check the valve adjustment . Now if the valve heads are down in the head to far then you are lacking comp. ratio, if the rings and sleeves are woren then she is lacking compression . Back in 76 my buddy and i bought a 806 junker and we started at the radiator cap and ended at the PTO with a total rebuild , this tractor was as new as you could make one and that year we finished up with it worken ground on Nov. 7 and aprked it in the shed out back i remember the day well as the next day the weather turn nasty and a twister came thru and leveled severl places to the east of us and that january we had the blizzard . My buddy andi were at the shop on saturday just after the blizzard and we were letting our trucks thaw out and this guy walked thru the door and asked if we were the ones that had a 806 forsale . Yep you came to the wright place now ya have to keep in mind that there were only a few roads open and here is someone looken for a tractor and he says if it will start TODAY i'll give ya 10000 for it we were asken 9000 for it and it is -25 out side and the tractor has not run since Nov. so we get my buddys truck out of the shop and i did a no no and grabed a can of either she go or either she blow and we head down to the sheadi made it on foot faster then my buddy did in a 4x4 as he was fighten the drifts now i never gave it a shot i pulled the throttel down about 1/4 and turned the key and hit the botton she was a bit slugish but started to turn faster and to my suprise it fired with NO EITHER AND NO JUMP. HE paid CASH and it took us two hours with the backhoe to dig the trailer out and haul it the 5 miles to his farm . No As we call him FAT LITTEL BUDDY as he is short and fat still has that 806 and we have put a T/A in it and put the ft. end back under it because he fell asleep and hit a tree fixed the PTO and a few small things over the years but it is still running but now it lives in a nice warm heated shead as they struck gas on his place and he built a tractor shead for his tractors and the heat is on from the fist chill till it get warm.
