I feel like, maybe if his body is moved in a certain motion, he can get his fire powerful enough to burn wood.

When he tries to do it voluntarily, it's not very strong (unless it's the flame he uses to send letters). But when he sneezes, is accidentally get thrown against a wall, or in this case: has applejack use her hooves to get his flame out like a flamethrower, it's very powerful.

So I imgaine that when he tries to use his fire to scare them off, it may not work, unless any of those things happen to him.
