Those are lucky tractors and I know of a few masseys offhand that have lived their life on ether. I cant explain it. I have researched on various forums about diesel engines regarding perkins and ether and known personally of 2 4 cylinder perkins that had rings broken by a light sniff of ether...

Bad info. Perkins rings will crack from the littlest sniff of ether. They're known for it.

To get by for the moment until your heater is installed, do like I do. Wont crack the rings. Starts gently without excessive cranking or a run away throttle up on starting.

My 4 cylinder perkins is a bastard to start below 20 degrees. I shoot flaming wd40 down the intake while someone cranks it over. No block heater on mine and no electrical outlet at my yard where the gear is.
