i always look at the simple and of course cheap repair first. first look at your fuel lines and blow back on them to make sure that there is not any restrictions, then change filters, next check timing, then i would check compression and your injectors, if injectors don't have good chatter or good atomization, change them, usaully not that expensive. if your compression is low then of course that's expensive, motor job etc. in most case though with my experience hard starting is usually related to the injection pump, meaning that it has low starting delivery/pressure, which mean the head and rotor, or the barrel and plungers, depending on your type of pump are worn out. my opinion on ether though is that there is nothing wrong with ether as long as it's used properly and lightly, and in hard starting or cold situations is an assest, which will also save your batteries and your starter.
