Geez maybe it is time for me to poke the beehive with a big stick!
Have put in ring gears in two straight 6 volt tractors. One needed it and one was marginal and I had it apart for restoration.
Have also replaced a ring gear in a converted one and the real problem there was a bad drive.
Really don't see how voltage has anything to do with it. Only differnce I can figure is maybe the drive is engaging a bit harder. Torque isn't changing due to voltage just speed. In this case the torque is determined by the resistance of the engine not the starter motor.
I have converted tractors I want to be able to depend on and will make sure that restorations get the cables that are heavy enough to make 6 volts work. That and the ground are crucial in all systems and even more so in 6 volt.
Oh yeah don't put a ignition resistor on a conversion either. Those will get ripped off and thrown in the trash as I have had to do many more times than replace points or condensors.
There, now I need to get away from these dang bees before I get stung.
