Well finding out id it is 6 or 12 is easier than testing the coil.

If the battery has 3 cell fill caps/holes, it is 6v.
if 6 it is 12 v.
With a volt meter it can be checked (across the two terminals)
If it is running and charging use it until you decide to put it to original or leave it alone.
the coil should draw about 3 amps. if drawing 6 amps it is the wrong one. If drawing 1.5 amps it could be a 12v on 6 volt battery.
