: On a recommendation from a local traqctor place, I replaced my 6 volt battery on Farmall M with an 8 volt battery. Now it doesn't charge. My thought is that my alternator doesn't put out enough voltage to charge an 8 volt battery. Anyone have any suggestions? My thought is to do a 12 volt conversion(alternator and regulator). If I do, can I still use my 8 volt battery? John, Your M should currently have a generator. I don't know of a 6 volt alternator. If your six volt generator is in good shape, all you have to do is adjust the regulator to set up the charging rate a little and it should keep your 8 volt battery charged plus your tractor should start faster with the 8 volt battery.
