I have a Lehman Diesel engine that I can not get to run without ether.
As soon as I stop the ether it stalls. I had the fuel cleaned today and
still nothing. The intake manifold is missing so I don't know if it is
getting too much air or not. I inherited the boat without the intake
manifold.

You've got something wrong with your injection system. You will
eventually crack a piston ring or blow the head gasket if you keep
running it on ether. Bad practice.
