Ok I feel real dumb now but I just took for granted this was a 6V system but he converted it over to 12. Was looking over the engine and noticed it had a alt instead of a generator. Then looked at the battery and felt very very dumb.
This week I going to start tearing apart the wiring since I know it is in bad shape with being cracked and exposed. What I have a question about now it should I keep it 12V or should I go back to 6V.
The tractor I want to have it looking nice and maybe even go to a few shows with it with our 69 International truck. But I want to be able to use it all year round moving earth and mowing grass when warm and moving snow in winter. I am just not sure if a 6V system would be good for this. If I stay 12V should I keep all the gauges the same?
Thanks for all your help. I have the service manual and I have to say that is going to help me out a lot now with everything.
