My battery that came our Super 55 HV is a 6V. My new Floyd County operators manual says that the HC engine was all 12V, and the diesels were 2 series 6volts.

I have what I think is the orignal delco starter, and generator. Can it be possible that I have a silly 6V battery trying to run a 12V system??? Was there a 6V system on the HC, my manual does not mention it.

Thanks for the help with the mystery.

In 1957 the Super 55 as well as the other supers were changed from 6 to 12 volt on the gas tractors. Like RAB mentioned look on the voltage regulator. Also unlees the tractor has been altered the 12 Volt gas model has key start instead of the little rod set up.

Mine is a key operated, y9ou must turn the key before pushing the starter. Does that make it a 12V????

No. The key start models are like your car, turn the key and then turn it a little farther to engage the starter when you said puah, yout told me it was six volt. The serial number is down by the clutch petal. The 57 models start 40 some thousand.

You could look at the markings on the starter, generator, or voltage regulator.
Or look at any bulb to check it's rating.
If it is a 6 trying to run a 12 volt starter, it wont work too well!

The 55 used 5 different model Delco starters, the 6V had a lug at the rear for mechanical switch [ 1107147 ]. The 12V starters had solenoids mounted above the brushes these were models 1108610, 1108632, 1108648 and 1107682
