12v back to 6v!

I don"t claim to be an expert, but the first thing I"d do is evaluate the wiring. If the previous conversion made many changes, I"d buy a new harness. That alone will answer a bunch of questions and lead you in the right direction.

You will need a 6V voltage regulator. Your"s was probably removed since the 1-wire alternator has an internal regulator.

Remove any resistor that may have been added to the ignition to drop 12-volts down to 6-volts or, if the coil was switched to a 12-volt coil, you will need to get a new 6-volt coil.

Light bulbs: All will have to be replaced with 6-volt bulbs.

Battery: You will need a 6V battery and heavy gauge cables. Don"t forget to hook it up positive ground and you will have to polarize your new generator to get it charging once you get it all together. There are numerous how-to descriptions available.

Hope this helps. I"m sure several others will leap in here with their $0.02.

If so, remove the resistor, then connect the coil primary correctly for the system ground polarity you will be using.

If the coil has been changed to a 12-Volt "no external resistor needed" coil, you'll have to replave it with a correct 6-Volt replacement.

The points and condensor aren't concerned with what voltage you feed them, so no changes are needed there.

Don't forget to polarize the generator before the first start of the engine after the conversion. (Or should I say "correction"?)
