A
turbodiesel engine is an internal combustion engine that uses both a turbocharger and diesel fuel. The turbocharger helps increase the engine's power by forcing more air into the combustion chamber. Unlike gasoline engines that use spark plugs to ignite fuel,
turbodiesel engines rely on compression ignition, where the high pressure created by compression ignites the fuel. This combination of turbocharging and diesel fuel makes the engine more efficient and powerful compared to regular diesel engines.
