NOTHING wrong with using ether correctly on a 939 series trucksdo not use either bad news
Absent a full canister this is the ONLY way it should be added if working alone!I shoot a little shot of ether into the snorkel on my M923. Starts right down to 10 degrees F.

By doing this, whatever cylinder has an open intake valve will overload and bad juju will happen. That's why the instruction tag states the engine MUST be cranking when hitting the ether.Yes, I shoot it in that big plug hole up on top of the elbow, just up from the factory cold start injection point. I can't do it while cranking, was by myself climbing up & down doing the 5-ton boogie.
Again if the truck is not cranking BAD things can happen by doing this. By adding it at the mushroom, you give the engine a chance to pull it in evenly.Ok, I read the cold start procedure & yes, I did everything you can do with no ether bottle.
I did not use much ether at all on either truck & shot it in the big 3/4" pipe plug just above the ether injection port on the intake manifold.
