"1982 928 wont start unless ether used" or fuel injection system is fixed. Corrected that for ya.

I suspect you have a bunch of things that are bad that have finally added up to a starting issue. The spray of ether, which I strongly advise not doing and plan to do myself later today, points the finger at a fuel issue, which could be;

Sensor or throttle switch, giving wrong info to brain so fuel command is wrong.
Brain is bad, unlikely.
Wiring has a short or poor ground in the injector circuit.
Sticky injectors.
Does this model have a cold start injector?

Bad fuel pressure, leaky regulator, pump issue (unlikely unless its a hard but eventual cold start).

Vacuum leak.

Runs perfect immediately immediately, or after a few seconds like 15 or 30?
