If I switch my WD to electronic ignition can I still leave it at 6 volts?
Thanks, Jon

I'm not sure they make the electronic ignition kit for 6 volt but I would not risk putting a 12 volt kit into a 6 volt tractor. If I were you I would switch to 12 volt, it's overall so much better. I have been very satisfied with the Pertronix kit in my WD.

We have the 6V PG kits in stock if interested. Have a kit in my Model B going on 16 years old now. Just treated it to a new cap n' rotor a couple years ago.  We sell a boat load of them. We have the 6VPG, 12VPG, & 12VNG kits in stock. These will work with the stock 6V coils. If you visit our website, we have a "How To" on there on installing an E.I. kit in a Model G with OEM 6V system.  Gives you an idea how easy they are to install....
