The tractor was originally 6v positive ground (opposite of all new vehicles and tractors) The coil and points will not be hurt if used for a few minutes on 12 volts, if it were mine, I would use a 6volt battery to try it out. Put heavy battery cables on it 00gauge welding cables, or truck cables, and it will turn with 6v. The generator is likely to be 6v as well. Thus it will be fine to go the 6v route. The starter will be 6v they are not changed, just run on 12v with no problems. So it is already OK. The carb and fuel are the most likely to be issues. Carb cleaner at least, and a akit with a soaking bucket is best. Compressed air to blow out passages is also important. Just use a tab of 340 grit paper on the points to buff them, do not replace everything, it is a disaster to trouble shoot all parts at once. It will go easily if it is able to turn over. Jim
