KEEP THAT STINKIN' ETHER AWAY from that engine :draw
Now with that said
just for S+G have you checked the PCM relay-- one way to check is to see if the heater blower motor is working--
Another member had start issues {sorry can't give props due to CRS} but if I recall...it was the PCM relay.
Just pop the cover under the hood...on the driver's side and start inspecting fuses/relays.....

and the winner is.....
Batteries!! We removed them to recharge them and when reconnected it started right away.
Thank you all for the help this 911 thing does work.
also I made sure he wont be putting any more ether on it.

Glad to hear that your buddy is back in business Zeke! I've heard more problems with batteries this year than I ever have before. Crazy!
And on the ether, the only...repeat only way ether is safe is if the glow plug relay is disconnected. If the GPR is active and if even one glow plug is getting juice..................... BOOM! I do understand it is a cool way to remove the intakes though.
He mentioned that when he sprayed a whole can of this ether on the intake if started with very high rpm's no throttle responce during that period of time and died just like it started. Now it does start we checked a few times and it does just fine. I'll give him some tip on how to treat it now since it is he's first diesel.
Thank you guys again.

The PSD are very sensiteve to voltage, you dont have enough she wont go even if it is turning over fast enough, I have seen 7 intakes get blown up because of eather.

is a daddy!
I saw a truck burn to the ground frome ether. Any diesel with glow plugs or any time of intake heater sheold ever see ether. Some bigger engines actually have a flame type heater and if you ether one of them you are gonna die! Be carefull with that stuff..

I never used the ether on mine, he has never had a diesel he even asked me if we could replace the "distributor", maybe that was the problem. Any way I told him not to use that, I thought it could not be good for a diesel but who knows on this new engines, after all you guys said I confirm and told him not to do it for any reason. He does not have a computer, so I will point him to use wherever basic stuff he needs (oil, additives, etc) to keep it on the rail. Hopefully he'll get a computer and get online, I did mentioned the site from the beginning :Sly .

Glad to hear she's runnin' Zeke 
Ether should only be used to clean parts
IF and I say IF you really need to use some sort of starting aid-- ---ie: low compression...................is about the only one I can really think of use some kind of penetrating spray lube.
Ether flash dries and scores the cyls....especially when some ill-informed truck jockey sprays half the can BEFORE spinning the eng over then tries to shove the other half while the eng is locking against the liquid in the cyls
ALLWAYS spin the eng over BEFORE squirting

I have a can of WD-40 to use as starting fluid. Is safe on these engines. If you look on the can of starting fluid it says DO NOT USE IN ENGINES THAT HAVE GLOW PLUGS OR INTAKE HEATERS!!!
Tell him to never use any additives in the oil and make sure he uses an oil rated for diesel. Maybe he needs to replace his sparkplugs.
