Ether Starting Control
Illustration 2 g01345739
Ether Starting Aid - If the temperature of the coolant is below 0 °C (32 °F) the engine ECM will automatically inject ether during engine cranking and during engine warm-up. The duration and the amount of ether increases with colder temperatures at start-up. Indicator (5) indicates that the relay for the ether aid is being activated. The system is automatic. Manual operation of ether starting system is not permitted. Do not introduce any additional ether into the inlet air system. The additional ether may damage the engine.For starting below -18°C (0°F), the use of the cold weather starting aids is recommended. A fuel heater, a jacket water heater, and extra battery capacity may be required.At temperatures below -23°C (-10°F), consult your Caterpillar dealer. For information on starting the engine in cold weather, refer to the Special Publication, SEBU5898, "Cold Weather Recommendations for all Caterpillar Machines".
