Guess its like Easy Start?  Don't over use it, the cars seem to get 'used' to it, and then never start without it.

About 20 years ago my dad had a Ford A-Series van and that would start every morning with a squirt of easy-start but just wouldn't start without it!

Could have used a couple of cans of that with some of the lazy bastids I used to work with....  Either that or the stuff that disolves superglue - so they could get their notebooks out their pockets.... >:(

Dunno if its right but I heard it pits the valve seats hence the engine gets addicted to the stuff.
Like I say maybe just an old mechanics tale. ;D

Used Easy Start once on a diesel generator and by the knocking noises it made before the stuff burnt off I'd say it was igniting half way up the compression stroke. :o

AH memories the Ford A series chonker just loved the easy start,should only be used sparely,found a rag soaked in some petrol lit up and placed in the air intake manifold would do the trick.
