Other than bad connections you just night have a bad resistor to cut the 6 volts to 4.6 volts to the points. My 44 2N has been running for some time with that resistor bypassed. We had starting trouble for years and used a 8 volt battery to get more power to the points. So just try if you get it cranking at correct spered and going to 12 volts will not help a worn or dirty starter turn faster with12 volts over the 6 volt. My 442N and 41 9N are staying 6 volt with no need to go to 12 volt battery Only reason I see to go to a 12 volt battery is if you are wanting to use a 12 volt radio that I do not have or want. Fix the rest of the system, probably take way more time than money and then and only then consider a 12 volt system.
