Actually WD40 was developed as a moisture dispersent by NASA ... it stands for W-ater D-ispersal formula 40 (40th formula they tried) ... its main function was to disperse water from electrical connections.
By the way the stuff thats in slick 50 is PTFE (Teflon) it was developed and is sold by Dupont and they do not recommend that it be used in internal combustion engines.
and if you drain your oil and fill the crankcase with WD40, your bearings and crank journals will last maybe 2 or 3 minutes before they're a pile of iron shavings in the bottom of your WD40 pan lol
