Also the "insert name of modern diesel" has a system where if the oil pressure isn't high enough it wont allow it to fire anyway
so its a no-brainer not keeping on top of the batteries

In many of the new diesels engine oil pressure is used to fire the injector, with a electronic signal from one of the computers...
You need enough voltage to:
*spin the engine to develop oil pressure
*heat the glow pugs
*actuate the injectors
Also you need an oil that is not like molasses when cold...
If your battery array is sub-par.... one or more of the above needs is not met...
= no start
