(EASIEST way) to RESTART your diesel engine after “running out of fuel” starting fluid ether

I’ve heard a lot of people restart their diesel engines with starting fluid or ether. Typically I fill up the tank bleed out all the air which is quite a process. Then charge up the battery usually about two times and then eventually get the tractor running again. I always tell myself I will never run out of fuel again. Well it happened again unfortunately, This time I decided to try starting fluid. To my surprise it worked first crank, I’m definitely gonna try it next time. As you can see in the video I didn’t use that much either.

sooo... if you have air in your fuel system... then is your fuel system your air system, and your air system is at that moment your fuel system?

My friend has a brand new kioti tractor that isn't starting . Checked the relays and it only has 71 hrs on it sprayed some ether in it and it started right up. What's up with that

An alternative is spraying diesel into air intake
