first... NEVER, NEVER use starting fluid !!!!!! if it won't start there
is something wrong and starting fluid will only damage or ruin an
engine. use of starting fluid will burn the glow plugs off at the base
faster that you can replace them. pull some out and look at them. the
voltage should be on them and you can hook them up out of the engine to
see if they get hot. check the compression, low compression = no smoke
and no start with or without glow plugs.....
