If I remember right the threads per inch were the same as standard pipe thread, but the pitch of the thread surfaces was different. -

When you drain the old stuff it may get a little creamy as it leaves the whipper valve.
D.Tibbitt and lovesthedrive Thank this. -
I thought everybody knew that blinkers went out of style a long time ago?
birdman52, LoSt_AgAiN, tarmadilo and 2 others Thank this. -
Seems that one of the auto parts chains has a coupon for a free bottle every other week. Should be no reason to ever run out of blinker fluid with that.
D.Tibbitt and lovesthedrive Thank this. -
Still available at O'reilly autoparts

It's recommended to drop your pants and underwear (don't want to get them greasy) and sit directly on the 5-th wheel so you can get a good view without straining from the side. If you don't see the fill tube; then keep sliding back and fourth on the 5-th wheel until it becomes visible. It may take some time, be patient. Good thing your not wearing pants. -
Don't forget to change to summer air from winter air in all your tires after you change your blinker fluid.( It's good to do them at the same time as to not forget one.) Also, be careful not to snap your muffler belt when filling the fluid. It's been known to happen...

Full explanation starts at 3:54. Also worth watching if capacitive reluctance has increased fluid consumption beyond recommended quantities.
tarmadilo Thanks this.
