"Would a can of Aerostart be suitable for this test?"

I'd say No, if it's an ether-based starting fluid. If it's just a combustible volitile like carb cleaner, maybe.

I just don't like sparing and fogging that stuff around a running engine. IMO, the propane method is safer because the combustible volume is smaller and can be directed more accurately. Sort of a revolver vs. shotgun analogy as I see it.
