IMHO start fluid has no place in desperate, short cut, "get it going" attempts....the underlying fuel problem(s) remain and still need to be addressed.
The potential peripheral damage caused by the stuff (expensive rubber carb diaphragms, plastic slide bodies) just not worth the risk.
Using this poison to get the bike to run for 3 seconds...you are then right back where you started from.
If the bike has sat loaded with fuel for a year or more...a comprehensive carb service is obvious and inevitable. For best reliable performance there are no shortcuts, no way around it.
Going forward, consistent use of ethanol treatment/stabilizer and proper storage maintenance procedures will minimize, if not eliminate fuel related problems.
Srry...rant over! lol
