[MBZ] Getting a Cummins

My pops and I swapped trucks. He wanted my 2016 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi 80k miles, I get his2005 Dodge 2500 SLT Cummins 5.7 4x4 112k miles, and a $4k check. Drove here to Illinois to make the swap. He was trying to guilt me into it saying I’d feel bad if my 85 year old father somehow fell and broke

That same engine is in a Pisten Bully PB200, ours actually has an OM352LA (turbo/intercooled). It also has the ether injector but ours has the hose cut. Is liquid ether available? It'd be awesome to have it working again and not have to pull the air cleaner to give it a little snort. -Curt
