 Hello?
 
 Contains water?
 
 The spray is mostly light hydrocarbons, with a little graphite and
 other non-volatile stuff.  It can leave a residue.
 
 However, the "WD" means "water displacing".  It's meant to dry out
 ignition wires, etc.  No water here.

BTW whatever WD 40 has in it, it is VERY FLAMMABLE. A friend of
mine found this out the hard way. (It says so on the lable, but who read
lables?) Be careful.
