another 6V battery question...

steve19438 · Jan 21, 2017

are the battery terminals all in the same position? I don't want to go to the battery shop with my old battery only to discover the new battery has the terminals positioned wrong.
thanks.

All group 1 batteries have the posts in the same place.

Steve........while yer 8N came from the factory, positive (+) ground, yer genny will charge fer negative (-) ground when "POLARIZED" correctly. There are some obscure advantages fer positive (+) ground, but just as long as BOTH yer genny and squarecan voltage regulator are correctly polarized, notta problem. BTW, modern plastic 6-volt batterys often have different sized battery posts pos-vs-neg, just adjust as necessary ...ie... file and pliers. Many neubie tractor mechanic wanna bees gitt confuzed about postive (+) ground 'cuz it ain't like their BelchFire-V8 with negative (-) ground and 12-volt alternator. Iff'n yer battery posts don't match yer battery cables, just turn yer battery around 180*, simple, eh? .........HTH, electrical Dell

And all group 1 batteries are 6 Volt.

Put a 8 volt battery in it and forget it. I have ran one in my 2n for years. It starts better and is not hot enough to burn anything but it does make your headlights bright.
