Wally ---- When you hold the start button , she is running on 12v......when you release the start button she runs on 6v in the run position usinG a restance wire.....LET ME THINK ABOUT THIS.....THE REST OF YOU OLD GUYS CHECK ME OUT......"JURY RIG" -- Run a wire from the battery or battery side of starter cellunoid, through a 20 0r 30 amp circut breaker (about $6) to a toggal switch (this will be your on/off switch)out of the other side of the switch through push starter button to the + side of the coil.....now run another wire to the + side of the coil from the on/off switch through a restor (NAPA has them--older Chrisler cars used them, about $12)this cuts the voltage down to 6v.....the engine runs on 6v ...starts on 12v .....when you release the start button only 6v remains......be sure to place the restor under the hood screwed to the firewall....it needs air ...because they get hot, burning off 6 of the 12 volts...... I think this will work, havent done it for 35 or 40 years........Don
