  11. Hello, I am the new owner of a 1951 dodge Fargo pickup here in Canada. Truck was not running due to botched 12v conversion and bad wiring. Got the truck running very well but my 6v auto lite mch 6106 starter running on 12v only engages some if the time. This is the foot operated starter. Mostly it just spins when engaged but occasionally after whacking it hard with a 2x4 it will turn the motor and start the truck. What are my options for 12v starting the rest of the truck is converted. Thanks.
