I have an Oliver 1650 diesel. I believe they came from the factory with two 6 volt batteries hooked inline, mine has just one 12 volt battery in it. Is there much differance in the differant setups? My Oliver needs a touch of either to get started (which I don"t like doing), wondering if I"m getting enough power to get the engine to spin and ignite the fuel. How much juice does the pre-heater take? Would it be better to have two batteries if I were to use the pre-heater? Also, what guage battery cables do you all use? The tractor presently has light car cables. Thinking of upgrading to something alittle thicker this spring, but don"t think I need 00 gauge like what I put on my 6 volt Farmall H this past spring. Any help would be great. Rich
