F Dean: I think Jim gave it to you in a nutshell, cheap batteries no matter what the source will only cause you grief, 6 or 12 volt. Most of the electrical problems we read about on these pages are the result of people wanting to go cheap. I wont say all, but there are also a lot of after market ignition parts out there not up to the task at hand. I recently came across a set of points in a tractor, and less than 20% of actual point contact surfaces actually met.

Battery cables another source of problems, yes some of them too light even for 12 volt. These old tractor engines, even near the same displacment don't turn over as easy as a Honda Civic.
