Well I found another use for WD-40, It can help find vacuum leaks on engines. I gave it shot after reading about a boater using it on his mercruser to find a vac. leak. Now the 307 in my parents 89 chevy wagon purrs like a kitten again.

Just so you know, WD40 burns really well too! I was there when WD40 got sprayed on a running distributor cap and it caught on fire.

yes but compared to the other choices or carb cleaner, propane, ether and naphtha (yes this was a suggestion on some tech website) wd-40 is relatively safe compared to the other choice's.
Snow...
Yes it burns well.
I remember learning to mig-weld. The instructor thought it'd be funny to blast WD-40 at my weld to startle me to try and break my concentration.
It lit, and with it went all the hair on his arm, eyebrows, and forehead.
Had it not been for my pants, I could have put the fire out with my reaction......

Works great on stiff joints in your body as well. My dad's doctor told him to use it on his knees and elbows for arthritis and it work great. Who knew?

Minuteman Civil Defense Corps BORDER FENCE PROJECT

MINUTEMEN TO BUILD ARIZONA-MEXICO BORDER FENCE
(PHOENIX, AZ) April 20, 2006 – Chris Simcox, President of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps (“MCDC”), today announced plans by the MCDC to work with local Arizona land owners to build border security fencing on private land along the border with Mexico.
At present, six private land owners have partnered with the Minutemen for the commencement of construction of border fencing on their land. Surveillance cameras on the fencing will be monitored via computer by registered Minutemen across the country. We have chosen a fence design that is based on the Israeli fences in Gaza and on the West Bank that have cut terrorist attacks there by 95% or more. In order to be effective, a fence should not be easy to compromise by climbing over it with a ladder, cutting through it with wire cutters, ramming it with a vehicle, or tunneling under it undetected. No fence can be a 100% impenetrable barrier—but a good design will be time-consuming enough to get through that Border Patrol agents can be alerted to get to a point of attempted intrusion before the intrusion can be completed. Our design does this. You can see it at
Simcox says those involved in the planning hope to keep costs near $150 per foot.

The groundbreaking will begin in Arizona on Memorial Day weekend, unless in the interim President Bush deploys National Guard and reserve troops to immediately secure the out-of-control southern border.
The fencing will be built with privately donated funds, engineering and labor and will be used as an example to educate the public about the feasibility and efficacy of fencing to secure America’s borders from illegal incursion by aliens and international criminal cartels. A non-profit organization dedicated specifically to this purpose will facilitate and administer donations for construction of the fence. Monetary and in-kind contributions for this effort will go directly into building materials for this private, volunteer fencing project.
Simcox issued the following statement on the MCDC border fence project:
“President Bush once said he would not wait on events to act to protect our country. He has been president for over five years, and still he has not acted to secure our territorial frontier, even as his administration admits the United States government does not have operational control of our borders. “On Memorial Day weekend, the American people will exercise their God-given rights to protect their lives and property by initiating construction of fencing along the border on private land unless President Bush immediately deploys National Guard and/or reserve troops along the breadth of the Southwestern border line with Mexico, thereby retaking the region from the international criminal cartels who presently are in operational control of the border. Additional support is available from military units presently training to guard the borders in other countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan and they should immediately relocate their training to the Southwestern border. “The existing border crisis is a dereliction of duty by those entrusted with American security and sovereignty, leaving America vulnerable to terrorist infiltration and an unprecedented crime wave caused by drug smugglers, rapists, thieves, human traffickers and murderers who currently cross our border at will. “President Bush and Congress have taxed the wages of the American people to pay for the protection of our country, and expended those dollars to subsidize millions of low-wage illegal workers with housing, education, medical care, and welfare benefits. Yet even the most basic level of national territorial integrity requires that our elected representatives secure the border. Should they continue to refuse to do their Constitutional duty, the Minutemen will again step into the breach and commence building the required border barriers on private land and with private donations. “Should President Bush and Congress fail to fulfill their oaths of office, and meet their Constitutional obligation to protect these United States from invasion, we, the sovereign people of the United States, having suffered a long train of abuses at the hand of a willfully insolent government, do hereby declare that these States ought, should and will be protected by American Minutemen.”Sincerely,
Chris Simcox, President Minuteman Civil Defense Corps
But still no defense against WD-40!
