6 volt slow cranking
Need some help. I have a '50 3600 with the original 6 volt system. Would barely turn over to crank so I replaced the battery with a new one. Same thing. Very slow to turn over, but when it catches, runs fine and sounds great. The 216 is strap grounded to the frame and the cables on it look to me like they aren't original. Could this be most of what I am having a problem with here? The ground is bolted to the frame (tight), but it should be going to the engine, right? I have new cables (bigger ones - came with the truck as replacements). Is it as simple as replacing the cables and getting a solid ground? Trying to set up the truck as a daily driver (or at least as a backup vehicle) so reliability is important. Any help appreciated.
