[QUOTE="ghohouston, post: 1545097, member: 9421"] We have not heard a video of what it actually sounds like/ is doing. We are solely going off of what the o.p. posted. Yes, you can make a diesel "run" feeding ether to it. BUT, this is a H.E.U.I. injection system, and it is very likely there is a bunch of air trapped somewhere. Hell on my little Jetta not too long ago, I had the injection pump lines off for a bit, and the pump lost it's prime. Once I was done with all my work, went to bleed the lines, and start it. It was being a real bear (the starter is getting weak too). So I gave it a few small shots of ether. Did it "run"? Only as long as ether was sprayed. Because the injection pump was full of air, not fuel. Had I known how much the pump bled down, I would have properly bled it first, but my point is ether is not always going to make an engine come to life. It might make it run as long as you feed it, but if there is a fuel or oil issue, it's not going to run on it's own devices until they are in proper order. [/QUOTE]
