I used to use it to start cars that had a wet distributer. I pop off the distributor cap wash it out with WD-40, reinstall the distributor cap and the car would then start.

...not too many yrs back, WD used propane to pressurize the can...which could have blown the distributor cap sky high! *L*

I thought it was butane propellant after Freon which was outlawed because it murdered cute little ozones. o_O

That story is from 1996. The propellant used in WD-40 now is CO2. I would also question whether a reporter knows the difference between butane and propane. It's like seeing them write about"silicone" calling it"silicon". I'd like to see a gal with silicon breast implants. 8-)

If you actually *read* the article it also stated: "Two months ago, WD-40 changed its propellant again -- this time to far safer carbon dioxide -- after California placed new restrictions on releasing volatile compounds into the atmosphere". *L*
