Default Wd-40

Hi, I had to laugh today. Watching a YouTube I saw a sailboat cruiser who's dinghy had capsized and drenched his 4-stroke outboard. While rebuilding the carb he uses WD-40.

Come on guys... Anyone here not sprayed a can or twenty of that stuff?

Remember the name is for "Water Displacement, 40th formula." I never have used it for that, always for a lube or a cleaner or (hand over mouth) a bolt loosener. For all those jobs it's, well not crap, but not the best...

What kills me is someone is actually using it for water displacement! Good on you mate!

Check the vids from the beginning, they've been from Sweden to Africa to South America to Panama to Hawaii to Alaska to BC to Seattle and on and on... The wife is about half way cute. Like most of us, they had to fix things along the journey.
