Umm there is no such thing as "blinker fluid".

Turn signal flasher modules are thermal in nature employing a bi-metal snap strip that heats up due to current draw of the lamps. When it deflects past the snapping point, it breaks the electrical circuit, cools down, snaps back and the cycle repeats. This is why you need heavy duty ones when pulling a trailer. The added load of the trailer lamps causes the heating to be much faster and the break rate is much higher, etc.

Solid state ones exist that can handle a variety of loads and can either be silent of make a clicking noise like the classic thermal capsules to prevent folks from riding their signals.

In either case, there is no such thing as "blinker fluid".

I think everyone here knows that... it's called a joke

Didn't blinker fluid come up along with elbow grease in an early episode of red vs blue?

Think again. You better start changing it every 1-2 thousand miles. 3o0o is much too long to wait.
