[I have a 40C that someone converted to 12V and a 420U that is 6V and the 420U starts better then the 40C. If you want to convert it ti 12V and need an alternator, I would be much more that willing to swap my alternator for your generator and regulator. This is in nice warm New Hampshire. If it starts hard, then something is wrong and converting it to 12V is not going to fix it, just mask the problem.

I file a little bit off the end of the rotor to open up the gap and run about .030" to .035 spark plug gap. Timing is important and while they will run and start id if is not right, having it dead on helps.
