Doubt it was ether. Ether in a warm running engine is likely to blow it up. The best ether injection systems allow a metered amount and are connected to a thermostat in the coolant that won't let it work if the coolant is hot. There are propane and water injection systems for diesels though. Somebody was probably feeding you a line instead of saying the engine had work done to it. Maybe they wanted someone else to try it and blow up their tractor?
I have never ever seen a can of either. Where do you buy it? The gas station, the farm store or either one? LoL
Used properly in engines designed for ether, it will not hurt them. If ether was so bad, how come so may new machines came with it and didn't have a disclaimer the warranty was voided? There are thousands of engines started every day using ether that haven't suffered any ill effects at all. Excessive amounts and improper use of ether is what causes the problems,not using it as directed.
