CumminsMan (diesel fitter).........DO NOT buy enny Electronic Ignition for a 6V-tractor. Why? 'cuz the solid state electronics module quits working at 5.7Vdc. (ittza solid state design problem) The very act of starting, causes many weak 6V batterys to drop to 5.4Vdc. Wanna guess WHY yer sparkies don't sparkle when yer startin'??? Surprizingly enuff, regular points and coil still work at 5.4Vdc.
Besides you can replace alotta $20 points fer $150 solid state electronic ignition.
I am NOT ANTI-ELECTRONICS ignition. I built my 1st-one in 1962 for my 1956 Dodge D-500 Hemi-V8 engine. (cousin to the Chrysler 300 Hemi-V8) I also have CD-ignition for my 165hp 7500rpm semi-race 1969 BMW 2002. All my other vehicles are diesel and I am still lookin' fer the sparkies.
Contrary to advertisements, Electronic Ignition does NOT make more horsepower ...or... solve male pattern baldness. Save yer money. Howsomevers; there is 'nuttin' wrong with EI and 12V battery systems and work good. ........Dell, ret Electronics Engr
