Availability of Starting fluid (Ether) in Africa
 

Hi people .
At 3 months from departure .. -West coast down to Capetown , East coast up to Egypt and then back to EU I realized that -perhaps- Starting fluid (Ether ?) "Easy Start" is not that available in Africa (if at all!)

My truck need it to start (really big diesel engine , no warmup plugs) so I was considering weather carriyying lots of spray-cans (I mean around 20 cans! or so for a whole year's cold engine starts) or buying it locally.

any ideas ? Could anyone confirm that these spray-ether thing are available all throught Africa ?

Thanks a lot .

I suppose

You would be very lucky to find it anywhere beyond SA and Namib.
