    What do you do with a wet gas soaked rag after it starts?

    Ether start in the FMTV

    If you lubricate the threads, you are more likely to overtighten it. Never seen anyone lubricate an ether bottle threaded end. Yours was old and you could have avoided the issue had you seen what was happening. An oil filter strap wrench would not have damaged the bottle.

    Ether start in the FMTV

    Take the line off and sniff it after activating it in cold temperature. Or, remove the bottle and weigh it(or just shake it). No hiss, it only lets a teeny tiny bit out. You know it works when the truck starts instantly. You know you are out when it does not start instantly.

    Ether start in the FMTV

    Ether used in a cold start system is perfectly safe to use.
