Well, the last time I used Ether to start a diesel was probably in the 
mid-'60s, so the technology may have changed.  As for the 2 stroke, it's 
REALLY hard to start a clapped out "Wacker" without it.  That's the 
brand name for a one-man soil compaction device using the moveable shaft 
as the piston ...
