READ honestly, blinker fluid does not exist..



it's either that. or could be bad battery but as you stated it seems like everything is alright with it.I still go with my first choice, alternator.
If all else fails, S15Lara could say blinker fluid (synthetic of course)..

maybe the flux capacitor but i'll have to get back to you on that..










Oh man!!! :lol:

if the blinker fluid has a higher viscosity than normal i would recommend replacing it. this fluid can be purchased at any parts store. additionally, blinker fluid can be used to fix anything. i mean i got a flat and i just poured blinker fluid on it and it fixed itself. im having additional reservoirs added this week so i can carry more blinker fluid. im gonna try taking some with me to my tests this week as well, who knows i mean it works on everything else. we have also discovered that blinker fluid is the catalyst for the great reliablity and longevity of toyotas. its been said that ford and chevy are going to start using the fluid in future cars and trucks.


oh yea, it does sound like your alternator. i replaced mine last year and it was doing something very similair.

it's FLUX capacitor. you can buy it at Ace Hardware. just ask any friendly sales associate. make you ask them for the 25 amp. not the 15 amp.
