Re Windy Militants post .. WD-40 makes an excellent starting assist fluid, along with ether .. and along with most stuff that comes in aerosol cans ..
WD-40 is regularly used by the tractor crowd, for their worn-out old diesels, because it doesn't produce the high explosive, engine-damaging, knock, that ether in a can, does .. but it still cranks them into life, just as effectively ..
I sincerely hope you're kidding.
