[Healeys] Roadside failures

WD stands for:  Water Displacement.  40 represents the 40th iteration
before the mixture was perfected.
Key ingredient in WD-40:  fish oil.

I think.

Hi All,

30 years ago driving in Quantico, VA on a very damp and rainy winter
night drove through a large puddle of slush and the engine died.  Water
snow and slush had shorted out the distributor and ignition wires.  Got
out my trusty can of WD-40, sprayed everything and was back on the road
in minutes.

Anyone know what the WD in WD-40 stands for?

Cheers,

Curt
