Heard of it, never seen it.

Think I'm gonna start carrying some WD-40 and a lighter with me.

WD40 is no longer flammable as of many years ago (I had an interesting childhood). You need starting fluid, and yes I have been there and done that. Maybe I'll bring a used tire to the next meeting and break the bead so we can practice our pyrotechnics.

Word to the wise... Start small with this technique.... If it doesn't work the first time, then you can try a little more, but if you put too much in and blow the tire up and/or hurt someone there will be no second try...

This has been your public service announcement for the day....
