i just had that problem myself. if you remove the cap on the bleeder valve on the fuel line right next to the air duct fuel should squirt out and then drizzle with the pressure. to check this turn key on for five seconds to let the fuel pump prime. turn off for five seconds again turn key to on for five secs. after that press the nipple on the bleeder valve and it should squirt out, if not your fuel pump isn't giving you enough pressure and has to be replaced

"Starting fluid" is typically a spray that is used to help get an engine to fire-up. The spray needs to be directed into the air-intake to get to the inside of the engine. Release the clips that hold the air filter housing top down, and spray the fluid into the rubber housing that leads towards the engine. Your Owners Manual will have illustrated instructions on replacing the air filter that will guide you. See "Related Questions" below for more
