Default RE: Substitute for Ether

Good day all,

I haven't had much time for testing lately and besides the weather hasn't cooperated much as well. I am going to rebuild my old PAW test engine and have doing some reading and research on what I need and how to give the cylinder/piston a rebore. Yes I know PAW provides this service but I figure if I don't give it a try I won't learn anything.

Andy, have you checked with Canadian Tire as to the availability of their branded Cetane Boost?

Also, it seems that this thread has been made reference to in a thread on the Barton forum site. For those interested see:

And what with all this talk of oil and castor oil in particular, a little bit of trivea castor in french translated to english is beaver!

Anyone follow up on that lead about Klotz's Coxoc product? sounds like synthetic ether maybe? What little I can find on this stuff indicates it is pretty nasty and should be avoided.

cheers, Graham in Embrun near Ottawa
