This word would be a hybrid word in German meaning something like hands on.
What you are probably referring to is the "Anlasser" or starter.

Thanks for you interesting and involved calculations. However, practice of
has its own dynamics. My Diesel Vanagon regularly produced a mileage over
30mpg, usually around 7L/100km (~34mpg). It of course depends also on
driving habits, terrain, temperature etc. The cold start advance uses more
fuel since it produces less power.

Helmut has posted a number of available accessories which I will check out.
