In Reply to: 8V Battery..... Charger posted by banjoman09 on September 04, 2020 at 14:53:53:
BTDT! 40 years ago I had an 8 volt battery in my '51 8N and a charger that could select 6V, 8V or 12V charging. I loaned out the charger and it came back non-functioning. I could not find another one that had 8 volt capability. Rather than convert to 12 volt I fixed what was wrong and stayed with 6 volt. I'll NEVER try 8 volt again and I refuse to ever convert to 12 volt. As has been said, if everything is right, 6 volt will start...period. I have had more that 30 Ford tractors. Only on was 12 volt as purchased and it still is. If I ever have to work on it, I will go back to 6 volt. My opinion and I'm sticking to it.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
