I remember when I was young in the late 1970’s, several times one of my exhaust pipes would develop a rust hole. I would grab an empty can that was big enough, cut it down the top to bottom, spread it and then fit it around the exhaust pipe and secure it with clamps. Worked every time!

Forgive me if there’s a comment in here already bout this : guerrilla tape is the best as Scotty says, there is another big benefit I show anyone I possibly can if you apply heat to it , it’s moldable to almost anything and hardens into the shape you form or attempting to deal with very good results. Believe it or not , i patched a hole on my back tire using the method I just listed as a temp fix . True story! Couldn’t believe it worked like it did!

Scotty, back in the 70's I learned a trick from a fellow Jeeper. He sprayed WD-40 under his Jeep after washing it off, then drove on a shell road. The Alkaline from the Oyster shells neutralized the rust. That worked great until the road crews stopped using oyster shell to pave roads. But still, I sprayed that wd-40 all up under the Jeep and it never rusted out.

Scotty, before you retire you need to make a video reacting to the Ford BARRA engine here in Australia. It is ford Australia’s engine and it is near perfect. The ignition coils are not held in with screws, the intake manifold does not cover anything and it’s a great looking engine with no plastic. Produced between 2003-2016.

Good hints with WD-40. But use a dry lubricant like graphite powder or graphite in a liquid medium that evaporates quickly. Oils and liquid lubricants will attract grit wearing down lock parts. Also true for all locks. Also don't load up keys on your car key ring, which will speed wear of your ignition switch too.
@johnyoder9302

I use WD 40 all of the time for many things, but if I have any electrical variable switches that are stiff and not making the best contact, I use DeoxIT. DeoxIT cleans electrical contacts as well as lubricates them. With these two tools, you have everything you need from rust to electronic corrosion. I use wd40 to clean old computer boards that batteries have leaked onto them. WD 40 is a wounder tool that works on almost anything. I even heard it used to clean stains out of carpets. Keep up the Great work Scotty!

Ducky tape also comes in handy for patching a down jacket….according to my dad. 😄 I have memories of the old-school grey tape on my dad’s jacket when he was outside tinkering in his garage. He also always felt there was no need to wash his car, just clean the tires and get them all shiny and the whole car would look magically clean. He kept that ‘86 Honda Accord for years and put 250k miles on it. Cans of WD-40 were always sitting around in his garage.

My two favorite uses for duct tape. When I lived in the north, I sprayed my sneakers and would shovel snow. It kept all the snow and slush off my sneakers. The other method I used was when my wife's car was almost stalling out when it rained. I opened the hood and one of the sparkplug wires had rubber burned off and was touching bare metal. All I had was WD 40. I sprayed it on the bare metal part of the cable and drove 5 miles to a part store. The car ran fine to the store where I changed the bad wire.

Looks like you have gaffer's tape which is better than duct tape. WD-40 absorbs water. It has its uses and doesn't hurt anything but it is a temporary fix and it will evaporate and harden with time.

FOR KEY LOCKS.... USW WD40 FIRST, WORK IT THEN USE TRI-LUBE.

I know everyone has his favorite duct tape story. My favorite was way back in the 60’s on a freezing mid-west winter morning when a friend with 3 twin engine Beechcrafts ready for a rush cargo run called me to help out because they were short one copilot. When I arrived at the planes, in the process of removing ice on the wings, he put a hole in one of the ailerons. He got out some duct tape, and 500 miles later we made the run without incident. To this day, I don’t know how that tape worked so well in the freezing temperatures.

Scotty, I live in the Maritimes. Sorry but WD 40 is not a rust protector/inhibitor. It flashes off quickly and fades away - if you want rust protection try Rust Check (green or red) or Fluid Film. There are other products but those are my go to choices and I've tried a lot of brands.

Kroil does a lot better job as a penetrating oil than WD-40, plus it has long term lubricating qualities.

Sounds like the value stems are worn so after sitting for the night a little oil seeps into the cylinder. First start in the morning it puffs it out

Wd40 is also excellent for cleaning windshield wipers and weatherstripping all around the car. Basically it cleans rubber greatly

Its great but it's not a lubricant like oil it's a lubricant remover. We used on military headsets but not on keypads or switches.

Don’t spray Wd 40 on the rubber suspension parts. It will destroy them.

Be careful if spraying wd40 on wiring if the engine exhaust is hot it can cause a 🔥 fire so have a fire extinguisher handy.
