Thanks for the helpful info! Earlier this afternoon, I got through to
someone at WD40 (they now own 3-in-one), who had a good understanding

expect more smoke for a while.

Yes, that's what I should do. Tempting not to bother with all that,
but I should. From the old cars that I drive, I'm used to smells like
burning oil, so that doesn't bother me.
