That generator with the two exhaust pipes is the most horrible thing ever invented! It is an air-cooled Onan diesel. The only thing good about it is that it burns diesel. But all the other benefits of diesel motor it does not have. Those things were so loud and would rattle all of the sheet metal off of it. Would develop stress cracks. All of the sheet metal was like consumable Parts! LOL

Our town has four gen sets used for peak hours. They're driven by locomotive engines. Recently, a local saw mill lost power for a week. The CAT dealer brought in 2 generators mounted on semi trailers to power the mill. Quite fascinating

Sad thing is that engines that get ether squirted into them for starting purposes actually get addicted to it. Doesnt do the internals any good. Pretty sure that 6LD Dorman that copped the spray could be made to start better without it.

Welcome to the future (or present) state of charging EVs! The paint stripper heat gun was the best method I've found in 40 years. It can heat the entire intake tract and doesn't burn up oxygen like propane torches. Modern "top end lubricant" spray can " starting fluid", which is almost junk and is inherently dangerous because it doesn't vaporise like real ether. It puddles in turbos and intake tracts, and after the rpm comes up, it is drawn in. I've seen a few big motors go to 4k+ rpm! A good 6v-71 Detroit i recently purchased regularly used most of the batteries and 2 cans of regular government mandated to prevent some idiot huffing it, "starting fluid" applied with the air cleaner out in 40deg weather. The junk was running out the airbox drains! Sludge from previous repeated use was horrible, and required removal of airbx covers to clean since it had plugged one drain allowing crap up into the ports! . An old "outdated, obsolete" system we installed that uses screw on cans of REAL ether takes just 2cc's at 20 deg! One shot pre crank and one after start for sub zero. No rattles. No waste.

Where I work we have a huge diesel generator as back up for if the power goes out and it actually has an exhaust stack. The generator is on the lower car park and the stack is connected to the wall and rises above the upper one. Last time it was fired up it coated a load of cars on the upper level with black soot, it was very funny.

Best to not load the air filter open it up shoot just a little right into the air intake that will start them I doubt the ether is what caused the damage it evaporates before it can thin the oil I’ve worked a lot in the Arctic in the oilfield .
