I'm not saying anyone is wrong on using ether and it's ability to damage an engine.But ether always used sparingly has never hurt any of our tractors. We had a 4oo case that got a light shot every time it started for 10 years. I know there were underlying problems that caused it not to start on it's own.Same story with an allis dozer with a 2/71 detroit. I even ether the 560 farmall to even out the cylinders after it is running and the glowplugs just arent all hot yet. I had a neighbor who blew a rod out the side of the block on a 901 diesel ford by spraying alot of ether in the air intake tube. The can should say use sparingly.And I like synthetic oil in the winter and sae 30 or 40 in the summer.I know you're not supposed to switch back and forth.
