Raw fuel that could make you cheeky, breaking wind (5,3)

I believe the answer is:

crude oil

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'raw fuel that could make you cheeky breaking wind' is the definition.
'crude oil' can be an answer for 'raw fuel' (type of fuel). I am not certain of the rest of the definition.

'raw fuel' is the wordplay.
'raw' becomes 'crude' (synonyms).
'fuel' becomes 'oil' (oil is a type of fuel).
'crude'+'oil'='CRUDE OIL'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for crude oil that I've seen before include "From which petrol is made" , "Unrefined petroleum" , "output from rig" , "Source of fuel" , "liquid asset" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
