Wifes car breaks down in -30 weather (starter turns too slowly, bad battery no charge etc.) and need to get it home to the shop to diagnose. And if they are thinking that - the thought should be corrected.the use of any starting fluid is one of two things:a) you are in an extreme situation and the car wont start but will with WD40 i.e. Danham - I dont think anyone is claiming that we should be starting our cars as a reliable alternative consistently. Some fluids, even the relatively non-explosive WD-40, can destroy the engine during a starting attempt.These risks for me are too high to gamble with, especially because it does no good to 'force' the engine to start when there are other serious problems that need to be addressed.-dan. 80,216 views 444 Dislike Share Save DieselTechRon 127K subscribers Subscribe I know the correct thing to say is don't use starting. Starting a Diesel with any such fluid is simply ignoring the real problem (timing, fuel flow, etc.) and therefore 'hazardous' to the operation of the engine. simple explanation, it eats up crap like plastics and sensors that are composed of said plastics such as the ones found in the intake systems of our beloved HPCR Cummins. diethyl ethers main use is as a strong solvent in industry. If you want to use WD-40 to start a Diesel, go right ahead, but I'll take a pass for the following reasons.VW says no starting fluids, period. most cans of starting fluid are a mix containing usually diethyl ether as the main active ingredient.
