dkwok asked: Why do diesel engines produce more torque than gas/petrol engines?

The cylinder pressures when the fuel fires are higher, up to twice the pressure in a petrol engine, meaning the piston is pushed down with more force and turns the crank with more torque.The piston stroke of a diesel engine is longer, so there is more leverage on the crankshaft, thus it turns the crank with greater torque, but usually at lower RPM’S.
