We quit using to 6 volt batteries in my 55 combine almost 20 years ago. Its 
a a whole lot cheaper to maintain.

Yep.  I noticed those loose bolts on the interconnect cable ends right
off.  The cables are in good condition.  Near new and are in series with
positive ground.  However, Dean had brought the tractor home, so they
were obviously making connection at the time.  Not a big deal at all.
Normal, as a matter of fact.  Heck, most have just installed a 12V
battery and stopped using the two sixes.  I have. That keeps most my
batteries the same.   Just keep the correct police out from under the
seat cushion.  I even got fed up with the 6V system on my '46 A and
converted it to 12V about 20 years ago. Now I can start it without
getting off and opening the petcocks.:-)
