Re: Converting back to six volt

Try jumping one 6V battery to the starter. On mine the field coils were changed to 12V so the starter would not work on 6V. (Smart move if you are running 12V as using 12 on the old starter could shatter the bendix drive)
If your engine turns over on the 6V you are fine.
You can get a 6V coil pack and rebuild the starter if it has had the 12V change done.
