I fitted the hella's to my jeep. The result is more light but the focus points moved so much that I could not compensate with the headlight adjustment and had to revert to the oem bulbs.

Found this spec sheet from Bosch Starters.JPG To calculate the current from kW, use the formula P = VI (P - Watts V - Voltage I - Current) So for a 3.0l Diesel you would need a 2.2kW (2200W) starter. Using the formula: 2200W = 12v x I I= 2200 / 12 I = 183A As Andy stated, it also depends on the batt...

A starter motor from a normal 2 Liter petrol engine draws between 60 and 200 Amps when turning over the engine when the oil is warm and thin. Under winter conditions, this current can easily double when the oil is thick. Diesel engines have a very high compression ratio e.g. 22:1 and require more po...
