Good for you for bringing this up. I too am gtting a little tired of the "don't use ether: trend. Use it when needed. Use as little as possible, don't dump it in. I know that M&M once had an ether injector built on. Then they removed it. To use ether when there are glow plugs should qualify you for a Darwin awards. It seems to me that the modern "starting fluid" is not near as hot as the old stuff used to be. Yes, I agree that too much might be bad for rings and could maybe bend valves. My old M&M G had to have a wiff every morning and again after dinner if it was a cool day. Same thing for my Case 1200 and I under stand it is still running and never been worked on. As for becoming adicted...new tractor starts without it, gets older and requires it...gets older and older and of course still requires it.
