deadlyshot 25 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 try boiled linseed oil it does catch fire but the trick is not to keep pumping the oil through till it squirts out the end. get the pressure there then it should smoke then soon as smoke dies down give it another pump or so and it should not catch fire its when you keep pumping it the oil squirts out and thats what catches fire Quote Link to post Share on other sites
