Can an IH 6v generator be converted to output 12v?

[ View Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ Return to Farmall Tractors Discussion Board ]

Posted by JR on October 15, 1999 at 09:25:08 from (208.216.106.99):

I have a 1947 IH I-4 tractor with a working 6v generator. However, the engine will seldom start when on a (new) 6v battery. A 12v battery works great. I would like to keep the positve ground system and convert the generator to output a high enough voltage to charge a 12v battery. Is is possible to do so? The generator is a Delco-Remy with the "voltage regulator" mounted on top of it. The "voltage regulator" only has a single relay. Is that only used to connect the generator to the battery when running and disconnect when not running? The generator and wiring match the parts shown in a parts manual for the system without lights. Help!

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny ... [Read Article]
