IMHO, I am not a fan of WD40 for other than applying to unimportant places, i.e. lawn mower wheel axles... or, better yet, for coating bass lures (great for catching fish!). I carry a couple cans in the boat all the time. I wouldn't use it on a HJ, the stuff has a tendency to gum up after a while and, frankly, I don't think it has all that good lubrication properties. If you want to use a light weight oil, I'd recommend something like TriFlow or Lubriplate spray oils. WD40 does work great as a lubricant when machining aluminum.
Your right, and I am not using it as a lube!!! I am using it as a solvent. It is an excellent at disolving oils and grease. Cleaning it off after, then applying the grease.
