  88. Danny, Thank you for this idea!
    2
  89. LOL! This is funny! Thanks for commenting!
    2

  103. RetroResto, Thanks for these comments. Some have experienced degraded starting performance in diesels following use of starting fluid while others haven't. I suppose that there are multiple factors to consider. Thanks again for commenting!

    2
  125. Thank you for the video idea!
    2
  126. This is a great point. I suspect the starting fluid I used had oil in it, since the cylinder head seemed oily after using starting fluid. Thanks for commenting!
    2
  127. Excellent point. Starting fluid in a diesel much more risky than in a gasoline engine. Thanks for commenting.

  145. Shaun, This is a great suggestion--thanks!
    2
  146. Econotech, I use an impact socket that is applied to the nut on the flywheel. I like doing this to provide accurate compression readings and makes getting these engines started a lot easier too. Thank you very much for subscribing and thanks for the positive comment!

    2
  212. Thanks for the feedback.
    2
  213. Thank you for this recommendation. I still find it hard to believe that John Deere used to make tractors with starting fluid canisters mounted near the diesel engine to help with cold starts. Starting fluid seems likely to damage a diesel as many others have commented.
    2
  214. Thanks for commenting!
    2
  215. Thanks for commenting on this.

  296. Robert G. Thank you for this information and this makes since given the design and compression ratios of a diesel engine. I'm much relieved that my Ford 5000 no longer needs starting fluid or the block heater to run. I was concerned about causing damage. Thanks again!

  581. James, Some recommend replacing the original air box with a high air flow system. I prefer the OEM air box that's on it now more than the power improvement. If it were me, if it hasn't been done in a while, I'd replace the spark plugs with GM iridium plugs and AC Delco wires. Additionally, I'd clean up the throttle body. Be careful to avoid getting solvent on the MAF (mass air flow) sensor. It's hard to say whether or not you'll experience performance gains without knowing the condition of the existing plugs and wires and cleanliness of the throttle body. Hope this helps!

  627. Wow! Thanks for commenting on this.

  628. I don't believe that running straight starting fluid will help. From the description of the problem, it sounds most likely that the carb has an issue.

  647. Jeff, I just turned down an offer this week for free stuff from another large company. I plan to redo the shelving so that I can show which products I've tested and which ones I've yet to test. Thanks for commenting!

  968. Ether queens--LOL! My old Ford 5000 tractor was an ether queen until using Restore. Thank goodness it worked! I agree that using ether on diesels will have a negative impact in the long run. Thanks for commenting!
    1
  969. Wow! I doubt restore would help the payloader. That engine must have been worn out or the injection pump needed a rebuild. Thanks for commenting!

  975. Curt, Great point regarding the diesel. I'd test this on an old diesel if I had one that I didn't mind destroying. I suspect it'd cause damage. i do find it interesting that several John Deere tractors from the 1970s came with starting fluid canisters mounted next to the engine. A friend has a John Deere 4040 with starting fluid as a factory option. That's not to say that it doesn't cause harm. Thanks for commenting!

  1283. Great question. It would only become "dependent" if there's been internal damage to the piston rings, valves, etc. This seems possible. I find it interesting that some of the old John Deere tractors come with factory installed starting fluid systems for those cold morning starts. Thanks again.
