What would be the battery current difference when starting a diesel vs a petrol car engine? How many Amps / Nm would it require to start a 2.0l (just for example) diesel vs petrol engine?
Interesting! Can you give me an example calculation for the starting current and torque of a 2.0l diesel vs petrol engine?
Sure! Let's say a 2.0l petrol engine requires 150A of starting current and 200Nm of starting torque. A 2.0l diesel engine of the same make and model may require around 300A of starting current and 400Nm of starting torque. However, this can vary greatly depending on the engine's design and specific factors such as altitude, temperature and battery efficiency.
