Surprising enough, it ran for a long time like that

My dad had a John Deere R tractor (early 50s) that had a fixture on the dash where you could unscrew a cover and take a can of ether (basically a spray paint can without the nozzle) and shove it up into the receptacle and spray either into the cylinders. I don't know if the ether system came from the factory, but I know John Deere sold cans of ether to use with it.
