No more starting fluid...

Check the HPOP Res, dip a straw or something in there and check the level of the oil. It should be within 1/2" of the top.

Might pop the fuel bowl cap to see if there is fuel in there...

Lastly, check the oil level in the crank case...

Are you getting smoke out the tailpipe when cranking? Are you getting a WTS light like normal?
