Question Blinker FLUID?

I read this @: http://www.kalecoauto.com/

-High Quality Synthetic Blinker Fluid-
Are you blinkers sluggish? Do they make an annoying ticking noise? Do they not flash fast enough? Here's your solution. Little do people know, blinker fluid should be changed every 150,000 blinks! KaleCo high quality synthetic blinker fluid meets the highest D.O.T. standards! KaleCo blinker fluid provides you with thousands of hours of reliable blinking without the wear and tear on the flash-synchro's that the other blinker fluids cause! KaleCo blinker fluid will not lose its viscosity, even in the most extreme situations! Why buy that old dino-blinker fluid, when you can get our unique patented synthetic formula? Satisfaction guaranteed!! For use in any car.


Is there such a thing?! My blinkers are flashing all wrong, but does this stuff exist!?

Explain! Thx.

Umm...did you go through some of the other things on that site? They have fuel injector cleaner for carbureted engines. They also have cross drilled brake lines among other things. The whole thing is a joke! I bet if anyone from that site is reading these posts they are literally losing it. Dave, I think you've just been had

Definitely a jokester site ... where do people find so much time??

Spark Plug & Plug Wire Cleaner-
Patented high-tech design allows KaleCo Plug/Wire cleaner to reclaim old spark plugs and wires! Did you know that tune-ups are completely unnecessary? The only reason your car has bad spark is dirt in the plug lines, and build up on the spark plugs! Simply pour this cleaner into your battery, step back, and watch the engine run smoother! Not for use on vehicles equipped with Opti-Spark.



:p :p

Oh - my sides are still sore!!! All members - IT'S FRIDAY - do yourself a favor and go to www.kalecoauto.com and click on the links on the left. This is the most hilarious site I have seen in a long time!!It really does look like it is a real company but the products will give you a real belly laugh - like the budget lowering kit for your car - don't spend money on new springs etc - their kit is only $1.99 - consists of 4 only 3" nails!!! A real hoot!!

Let's see if we can get FastLane to stock their products.

I WAS going to go for the Sportline kit, but Kale's lowering kit can be installed in minutes!

I knew I should have switched to synthetic blinker fluid.

I'll do it just as soon as I regrind my catalytic converter drive shaft back to specs

And while I'm at it I can rebuild my brake pad oil pump

Just a tip : when you change your brake pad oil pump be sure to use the Kale Pilot Wrench - sure makes the job easier. Make sure you get the metal one for metal parts and not the rubber one for rubber parts unless you have to work on your drilled brake hoses at the same time - then the rubber one is indispensable

blinker fluid?

Go to your nearest airport and ask them for 50 yards of flight line or tell them that you need to degrease/clean your engine and need a bucket of 30 weight steam!
