Default Transition between full ring and 6 max

So the past 2 days I have tried a little 3-6 6 max and have a few ? for you guys. (I bet this has ben asked before but the search is not very good or I'm not smart enough to figure it out)
A little background, I normally play btwn 2-4 and 5-10 full and run at 1.4 bb/100.
Anyways I found that 6 max is much more enjoyable even the nasty down swings and would like to make it my main game.
A couple of ? about situations that are more common at 6max than full ring.
What hands to complete against 1 limper in 1/3 SB?
" " to raise from SB against loose limper KQo med pairs? effect of loose BB.
Thoughts on protecting SB/BB against steal, when to call when to 3 bet.
Playing busted K high hu.
Thoughts on blind battles esp. A high on turn against BB.

My stats through 3600 hands VPIP:15.5 PFR:12 VPfromSB:22.16 Folded SB to steal 96.7 Folded BB to steal 78.6 Att to steal 24.5 Went to SD 31.33 Won at SD 58.6 BB/100 -0.35

I'd appreciate any input.

22+, Axs, Axo, Kxs, K7o+, Q6s+, Q9o+, J8s+, J9o+, T8s+, T9o, 98s, 87s, 76s Sometimes more sometimes less. Depends on the BB too.

Very player dependent. Almost always 3-bet 88+, ATs+, AJo+, KJs+, KQo. Rarely call in the SB. Defend the BB with most suited cards after a cold caller.

I think it was Ed Miller who said that theoretically 6-max play is no different than playing a full ring game where the first 4 people have folded. Think of it that way, and it will get you off to a good start. Also, you are way too tight.
