If you've got a hard-to-start tractor that sometimes needs a shot of ether to get going, you'll like this idea.
Bill Marley, Nokomis, Ill., came up with an easy way to give his engine a quick boost. He drilled a hole about 3/4 in. in diameter into the intake air pipe going to the carburetor. Then he covered it with a sleeve cut from a sock.

A hose clamp attached below the hole keeps the sleeve from sliding down too far.
