I just picked up a side mount 8n that will pull start. Behind a truck. The wiring is messed up. It has the original generator on it and the guy was trying to use a 12 volt battery to start. I pulled it and got it running without a battery and the generator is running the motor and sending about 7 volts to battery terminals. I think the simplest thing is to just go buy a 6volt battery. It does have a resister mounted on the starter but I think it was swapped out from a 12 volt tractor at that farm. So with the new battery I might just order a new harness and start off right. The rest of the tractor is pretty good. Looks like a good candidate for restore one day.
