Diethyl ether. Extremely flammable and volatile and that distinctive aroma. Amazing stuff

Hahahaha.
Years ago I worked in a Shell petrol station. This was before the advent of Coles Express.
“Start Ya Bastard” was on our product master file but our minimum stock on hand was set to zero. So I changed it to 1 and next week, there’s some in the delivery 🙂
Manager said nothing. He knew.

Having owned several old carby cars I’ve had several cans of this through the years.
I started a truck with a can of Rexona when I didn’t have one of these.
Flammable gas in the air intake is flammable gas in the air intake.

I don’t bother trying to start the mower unless I’ve got a can handy

You can say bastard. It’s ok. It’s even written on the can. No need to censor it.

I was working in a community and was using fly spray to start a car. I told them it gets the bugs out … The best though is the gas cans for the camping bbqs, it starts engines without the pre-detonation rattles …just put a nozzle of some other can on it ..
Censor the word bastard? What’s next, the word cunt?

Had a carb commodore that wouldn’t start without it 20 years ago, kept a can at all times. Pop the hood and a quick spray in the intake and it’d start every time. Well, not unless you didn’t spray enough in of course. Then you’d spray in more and say start ya bastard while standing half in half out of the car turning the key and holding the can menacingly.
