in the process of changing the wire harness on my 1950 8n ford I noticed the battery may have been hooked up wrong. I have used it for
the past 2 months and did not have a problem. What happens if the battery is hooked up wrong. Will it hurt the battery or any of the
charging system?. I switched the cables around so it now has a positive ground and negative is one the starter. I hooked up my six volt
charger to the battery and so far after an hour it does not look like its taking a charge. I would like to keep it to a 6 volt system
rather then a 12 volt. Reason I changed the wiring harness was that previous owner sprayed the engine and everything on the engine.
Hopefully everything is hooked up correctly. Any suggestion as what to look for if it the battery was hooked up wrong.
