Default Where To Buy Ether For Diesel Fuel?

Thanks for the replies. Yes, model diesel engines do typically require something that is more volatile and has a lower flash point to "kick start" the combustion, especially when cold. Ether does this quite well. Automotive sized and larger diesels often have glow plugs that do the same thing, so ether is neither required nor beneficial.
