Mitch: I ran 560D, 656 and 1066 all with two 6 volt in series, and 100 hp turbo Deere with two 12 volt hooked paralell. I cant say as I've ever seen any advantage one way or the other in cold weather starts. I do know my 6 volt batteries hooked in series had more longeviety than the 12 hooked paralell. However the Deere was used substancially more in winter, so the numbers of starts could have been much the same. I'd have to say after close to 60,000 hours on those 4 engines, I really have no preference on the starting systems. I would never go to the bother of changing one from 6 to 12 volt batteries or vice versa. I do believe the Deere was a better engine to fire up in cold weather.
