Most starting "fluid" is ether.
It is supposed to go into the engine in GAS form, not liquid.
It should be sprayed into the air box, probably with the air cleaner still in place. That pretty much guarantees that the above won't happen.......and a little goes a LONG way. All it takes is a one or two second squirt.
I never thought about it before but I guess it would be possible to flood it with too much if you are spraying directly into the carb throat.
