 Any aerosol oil will be flammable.  Not just because the oil will burn but
also because the propellant is a Propane/isobutane mix.  Even aerosol
insecticides, which are mostly water based, carry the flammability warning.

Be sure to use in a well ventilated area to allow the flammable gases to
dissipate.

I do believe that the rough idle has nothing to do with your distributor.
>From what you describe I would be thinking air leak somewhere on the
induction side. I would spray light oil around all the joints, flanges and
inlet manifold with the engine running if the engine suddenly runs smooth
there is your leak. Be careful if you opt for a WD40 spray or similar it is
highly inflammable.
