It appears to be a hot start relay.
In most cases these can be removed as the real problem is corroded connections or electrical problems elsewhere. This includes 6v vehicles. |

Don't listen to him, it's a trick! :o
Actually, that's what it looks like to me too. Or a flux capacitor. |

| It really just made for a direct connection from the starter to the battery. 40 year old wiring looses alot of juice from the key start to the battery to the fuse box and back to the starter. The relay just cut out the middle man. As long as you don't ride the starter, you'll be ok. |
