It's not advisable to put WD-40 in an ignition system. While it can provide temporary lubrication and may help with stuck components, it can also attract dirt and debris, potentially causing more problems. Additionally, WD-40 is flammable, which could pose a fire risk in an ignition system. It's better to use products specifically designed for automotive electrical systems.
