Diesel RVs: RE: [diesel_mercedes] Cold Starting.

The compression ratio is way too high to use Starting Fluid, I’m told. I have heard of people using spray can 3-In-One oil. Nate? Bill in Oregon

Curious, my old chev with a 6.2L diesel warned against using ether (starting fluid) because the glow plugs may cause the ether to light up and damage the engine.

Any one have any experience or theories about using it with our Mercedes 5 cyl engines?

I know I know here in Mazatlan the block heater shines every day, but will soon enough be back in the land of below freezing.
