This is why you dont use ether on diesels!!

I've done that a few times, you just have to be quick airing them up.

clip-on air chuck,have guy stand a ways away while he kinks the air hose.spray and light ether.as tire goes boom release air hose. been there done that as well.10 24.5 tires one day.had the fire deparment show up at the house for reported explosions.they just shook thier heads and left

tire companies wont warranty a tire that ether used on it.it can break the cords,seperate the tread among other things and it can be smelt 10 years later.

Clip-on chuck? that would make things too easy

I remember the first time I ever used ether on a tire, sprayed it in there, light it up, tire goes BOOM!

And while me and the my brother are sitting there laughing like schools girls about it, the tire falls off the bead again, damn 16.5's!


If it wasn't for the fact that they were cheap humvee tires, and I couldn't get them to even come close to starting a bead on the 10 wide rim, I wouldn't have used ether.

I like to shoot ether in very small amounts outside the air filter if needed, if in doubt, use less, you can always try again! Then I let it sit 30 seconds to a minute, it is usually harder to start than with glow plugs, but it does the trick in a pinch.
