You could put a 12 volt battery in place of the 6 volt battery just to get it turned over/started. You can"t run it long that way because it will burn the points/coil but its ok to do for a little while. Or you could put a ballast resistor in the coil wire and run it all day with 12 volts. That way you could get it up and running and then when you get the 6 volt battery charged up put it back in and remove the ballast resistor. I do that off and on when haveing that type of problem.
