yeah, I had no indication of starting at all. I got the ether from the place I got Biodiesel, the guy was a big diesel fan. We use ether on some of our busses that can't be put close to a plug (yeah I know ghetto garage eh?)

There was really no bark, I cycled till the light went off about 6 times before each attempt, which was 3 in all, each one about 30-40 seconds of cranking. I'll just take my gasser jeep but I really don't like driving it, it's sort of a rock crawler, no top, roll cage, 12PSI in the tires and lockers, it's not fun in the snow. I also just need to plug in the block heater and it should start right up, my roommate missed the bus it wasn't like life or death.

About the used motor, could a fuel injector cleaner help out, or are my injectors basically SOL?
