Hello all, I have read through the forums and tried to get this answer. I have a 1962 Ford Ranchero that is running a generator (6v). I meed to replace the starter and found one locally that is a 12v. Will it run ok? I am planning on converting to a 12v system, but need the starter installed. I appreciate any insight you all may have. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
6 volts won't spin a 12 volt starter, however 12 volts will work just fine on a 6 volt starter. You probably would get more response posting on the main board.
I would change to 12v now then you don’t have to do it twice. Not hard to find 12v generator rest is piece of cake. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
