FWIW, the WD means Water Displacement. The stuff was originally designed to displace water in rocket engines. It works well for old style ignition systems that have gotten wet. Spray it inside the distributor and on the wires, etc. It will usually let the car start.

Noooooooo. You never oil a shutter because it accumulates crud from the residue. You clean shutters with naptha because it leaves minimal residue.


Yes, you might as well send it on off as the WD-40 will gum it up when you least want it to. For lack of labeled "Naptha" you could have used a little lighter fluid or Coleman fuel.
