I am using the electric drill to start up the engine without priming the engine with ether or fuel with ether. Fuel mix is 1 part kerosene, 1 part gasoline, 1 part 15W50 motoroil. The electric drill has max revolution per minute at 1400, it is enough to ignite the fuel in the engine. The fuel recipe is from the book "Young boatbuilder" by S. Lugininov, printet in 1955, USSR. Fuel mix works well without ether in the engine if the engine is startet up fast enough to ignite fuelmixture. The engine must have good compression to use the fuel without ether.
