: My neighbor is having problems with his tractor. It is a '50 McCormick Farmall Cub, 6 volt
: system. The problem started as the battery wouldn't charge. He isn't sure how to connect the
: battery, positive cable to negative battery, or positive to positive, and has switched back and
: forth a few times. Someone told him neg to pos on old 6 volt (positive earth). I really don't
: know. Also, battery only shows 4.5 volts with the tractor off. The battery charger leads get
: hot and only get the voltage to 4.85 volts. Is it possible the generator was damaged? : Can you help? : Thanks in advance, : Eric Weber
Put a 12 v battery on it with a 12v coil with built
in resistor and forget about the charging system. It
will crank good for weeks before you have to charge it.
