NDS said: (quoted from post at 06:50:03 11/05/10) I beg to differ. 6 volts systems are only slightly better than hand crank for starting. If a had a dollar for every time I have gone out to start 6 volt tractor in morning and only got a grunt I could buy my wife something very nice for Christmas. On the other hand my 12 volt A has not been started in 3 or 4 months cables have not been cleaned in years and I will bet I can go out this morning in 30 degree weather and it will start right up. IH even found reason to convert 140s to 12 volts before end of production. Today you will not find 6 volt system in anything even a lawn mower.
Today you won't go out and buy a new Camaro for 3,500 dollars either. Times change and things improve. 6v systems can still be used just fine though, I use mine here in Michigan where it gets sub 0 temps during the winters with no issues. Don't know what you're doing wrong. My 6v H spins over about as quick as my 12v M, and neither has failed me since the batteries were both new (about 2 years ago)

It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
