Barney,

I did a bit of web searching on using  WD40 as starting fluid, and I 
found a number of discussions on various lists, many pertaining to 
boats.  Several people  claim that at some point years ago, WD40 
changed the propellant from propane to CO2.  They claim that the old 
version made a good starting fluid, but that the CO2 version does 
not.  I haven't found any definitive information on this so far.
