Richard, this is a topic I don't know enough about, but I think the big secret is to not use too much ether and since all the small engine diesels I'm aware of, tractors, cars, etc., say to NOT do it, and since I've seen one Yanmar the dealer said he took in on trade and rebuilt the engine, replaced a piston and several other parts after the owner did that, I don't "recommend" that anyone with these compact tractors risk it. This (if "relatively safe") strikes me as much easier and much cleaner than spraying the WD-40.Īm I heading into disaster with this way of thinking? what are the pros and cons of taking that hand held and "wafting" some propane gas (unlit) into the air intake?
