We had the WD-40 out and the hot wrench (torch) to work on a particularly stubborn bolt. This bolt happened to be pretty close to a fuel line, so extra caution was needed. I was under the thing on a creeper while Clay was above, spraying the WD every now and again in between bouts of heating the bolt. Eventually it really lit up (Clay was spraying WD while I was heating). He later said he didn't know it was flammable. He was above, and I was underneath with a nice big fire going and, of course, no fire extinguisher nearby... Fortunately we are still around to wrench another day.
Flames plus WD-40 can lead to fire, but the fumes are extremely deadly.
