Ether tends to be hard on an engine, but less damage is done if a proper injector is used, and not just the can in the breather. Ether strips oil off the cylinders, drying them down, and creating friction. It is best to fix the underlying problem, rather than use ether. Personally, I prefer to use a block heater in winter, but I do use a shot if it's -25C and I only have one chance....but it's not good. I hate using the stuff if at all possible. I use ether more for drying oil off parts before applying loctite then I do for starting.
