Can you start a bonfire with motor oil?


Rate This Answer

Soaking firewood in used motor oil is one way to create waterproof firewood or kindling. Firewood soaked in motor oil is helpful when you need to start outdoor fires in inclement weather; oil-soaked wood will keep the fire burning long enough to add wood that may not be seasoned. Fires started with motor-oil-soaked wood will smoke until the fire gets hot enough to sustain itself.
