Default Blinker fluid

So I called the auto parts store and while talking to them about my turn signals not working they asked me if my blinker fluid was full. After checking all my turn signals i have found they are all dry... What blinker fluid do I use? is it all the same or done by year or make? Can someone tell me? I would really like my turn signals to work again.

You need anti freeze blinker fluid, too damn cold out there in Alaska for normal blinker fluid.

I use valvoline 15w20 and I get maximum brightness! Try looking next to the muffler bearing section at autozone.

Having 5000 posts doesn't necesarily mean you are knowlegeable. It might just mean you have craploads of time on your hands. But yeah, this guy is kidding for april fools. Nobody would beleive that. But I approve of an april fools thread.
