Haaaa, I love it! Never seen it though.

I use ether with reckless abandon on my little wood chipper; it can puke its guts out for all I care. But it refuses.

Darn, looks like it's only in your area:

Our Products - Nulon Products Australia


We don't have a sense of humor here in the states, we gave up funny and traded it in for stupid.

Many a farmer has uttered these words in Aus while trying to start a poorly maintained piece of machinery.
Seems the logical name to us.

Hilarious, I wouldn't put a squirt of ether in any of my trucks, but we have a JGB forklift at work that eats a can of it for breakfast every morning! That is exactly what we say when we are feeding it!

The truck I am working on right now has a bottle bracket and pull switch in the cab. Of course all that is coming out as I rebuild it.
