*** THIS POST APPLIES TO ...-A2 VEHICLES ONLY! ***
I have a M931A2 tractor, and I noticed that its ether starting system is more complicated than on my M927.
First, there are two small lines going to the ether bottle. One goes to the main opening and another to a little opening on the side.
1) What does that another line do?
2) What are the bottles with the same threaded hole on the side? Where can I get them?
The one I bought at Napa screws in nicely, but the fitting on the truck does not screw into the hole on the side of the bottle.
Secondly, I am slightly confused how the ether is actuated. Is that correct that it is only actuated during actual cranking? That's what the plate next to the button seems to imply.
Could someone clarify this. If there is a manual that I missed that talks about it I would love a reference. I read TM9-2320-272-10.pdf and did not find much.
Thanks
