I found this on the lasalle appreciation site.
New to me, never heard of blinker fluid.
Anybody know info?

Fluid
$18.95
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, factory quality blinker fluid should be changed every 150,000 blinks. Our blinker fluid lasts ten times that. KaleCoAuto high quality synthetic blinker fluid meets the highest DOT standards while not being in the least bit DOT legal! KaleCoAuto 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. KaleCoAuto 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.

also often overlooked is the service on your muffler bearings.

Folks that a legit service requirement as changing the air on the tires every 3000 miles.  ;)

Its a whole website.   http://kalecoauto.com/

My favorite products are the lowering kit and cross drilled brake lines.





The engine oil bypass kit looks pretty good too.   Like it says why would you want to run nice clean oil through a dirty engine?

I didn't check but is the flux capacitor still out of stock?   I suppose with the Back to the Future future now in the past there is even more demand for time travel?

Ahh.. Ken beat me to it. Right when I read this I was going to suggest to everyone that you should all check your muffler bearings. The new offshore inferior parts do not last as long as the originals did. But I think that this job requires a left handed screw driver... no?

I am still trying to locate the spiel regarding Lucas Electrics and Smoke.

It is about how Smoke is travelling through the wiring in Electrics by Lucas, and when there is a fault, it is always found by the "escaping" smoke.

Alas, this isn't the spiel I was referring to.

The one I remember, but cannot recall, was the full description of the way Lucas use Smoke to operate the system.   And described the way that faults could show themselves.

Thankfully, GM and especially Cadillac, and all other USA Manufacturers declined to use anything associated with Lucas.
