A guy stated once (on here) that starting fluid is extremely harmful and he explained why (dont remem what he said) & called it "liquid sand in a can".




I was hoping someone would bring this up...........old schoolers I know call it "very caustic" and generally discourage the use of it if you don't have to.




that is what i have heard as well.

i just have a little glass bottle filled with gas, and dump a bit down the carbs before firing it if it has sat for a while. that at least gets an initial few seconds of running and primes the carbs. then i don't have to crank nearly as much to get it going.
