With all the hard starting issues lately due to the "Polar Vortex" (in Canada we just call it winter ), I figured a How-to about using Starting Fluid aka Ether would be in order. Since my Glow Plug system was not working and I had to do this anyway, I was inspired to document it. Hope it helps someone.

Starting fluid is not bad. Misapplying it is bad. Misapplying anything is bad.
Don't use too much.
Don't use it on a warm engine. This includes an engine that is on the block heater.
Don't use it with your glow plug system hooked up.
Do keep the engine rev'd up until is smooths out a bit after it fires.
Happy starting.
