By cycling, i mean i can hear it come on when i hit the key, and when i pause during cranking. I figured if there is a fuel issue, shooting ether down the intake will get it to fire.

so far, ether has gotten me jack.
When I got my W126, it had a bad FP, blocked tank strainer & blocked fuel return. I was able to start it and keep it running (at a smooth idle) with just ether/starting fluid (had to have someone else turn the start it).

Again - timing light!
