I've got an early 70's 2cyl 30hp diesel (no glow plugs), that can really work the 12v starter hard during cold NE winter starts, even using a heating pad on the air intake pipe & oil pan, plus a battery charger on a timer, to keep it up to snuff.
An older neighbor (in his late 70's), has a 1950's JD that uses a small gas pony motor to spin over the diesel, till it kicks. Works every time.
I'd like to know if anyone knows how many pony engine hp it takes to spin over, a certain amount of diesel hp?
Thanks,
Shadow
