Best Answer

the two to three thousand kilo engine and gear dox assembly would crush the cars suspension and the engine is three to four feet tall so you would not see over it then the two thousand plus newton meters of torque would destroy any axle you attached it to and that is just for starters

Why does a large lorry need a bigger engine than a car?

A lorry (bus) needs a big engine because it is far larger then a car, and because they are designed to run as if they were full all the time. However, because the engine runs ondiesel, it isn't actually that much bigger. It just makes more torque.

How do you jump start a 24 volt lorry with 12volt car?

As far as I know you can only do it if your lorry has two 12volt batteries connected in series, ie with the positive of one battery connected to the negative of the other. If so, then you connect the car jump leads to ONE of the lorry batteries in the normal way (car positive to lorry battery positive, car negative to lorry battery negative). Try to start the lorry like this, with the car engine running at a fast idle, with all electrics on the car turned off. If this doesnt work, try again with the jump leads connected to the other lorry battery ONLY. If this doesnt work, then both lorry batteries are too flat and you'll have to jump off a 24volt lorry / charge or replace the batteries. Jumping off a 12volt car usually only works if you have one lorry battery which is ok-ish, and you use the jump leads to "help" the weak one with the car. Good luck from Norn Irn!

The same way as jump starting a car, only beware that the lorry may have 24volt electrics. Use jump leads, connecting + to + and - to -. Red to red and black to black. Use a donor lorry with the engine running, or a donor battery, using two 12v batteries connected in series if 24volt system.
