Question

Answer
Hello,

 A case 885 tractor doesn't have glow plugs.  There is an ether start function that injects ether into the intake manifold for cold weather starting when the button on the dash is pushed.  It should only be used while the engine is cranking over, not before.  If it doesn't work, the ether can may be empty.
