Re: Air Hose

[T Berk <tberk@mindspring.com>]

Good Idea but...

WD-40 should be kept from any chance to get into the intake and
combustion of an O2 sensor equipped car. It burns off as some sulfurous
products and these don't like the O2.  Capeesh?

Better to get some kinda starting fluid or some such that guarantees O2
sensor safe.
