This is telling. Ether will fire just about anything if there's a spark.

So in my view one of 3 things happened:

1) You have no spark at the plug
2) You have a spark but the timing is way off
3) You cranked for an insufficient period of time to draw the ether into the cylinder

This is why I prefer observing a spark at the plug, it includes all the wires, rotor head, coil, etc etc.

Keep trying - good luck.
