If such a thing ever happens again, think "starter fluid". Ether in
a spray can. Commonly available at auto parts stores/departments. Short
burst into air filter and you're in bidness. It also may be wonderfully
efficacious when one is dealing with a cantankerous old engine with low
compression.



starter fluid is a must here on the farm in the winter when cranking
the old diesels.
