Your Buddy Needs Blinker Fluid
How are your friends going to feel like dear friends if you don't ruthlessly demean them? It's the manly tradition that predates sending cards, homemade quiche, and muffin baskets.
A constant favorite is tricking victims into flaunting their ignorance, and what better way than with car parts? Telling someone they need blinker fluid has been the standard, but there's always new spins you can put on it.
The base gag is turn signals that make a clicking sound because they've run out of blinker fluid, which may lead to shorts in the headlight assembly and maybe even fire under the hood. Add your own dilemma's from there. Maybe synthetic blinker fluid is needed if they use their signals a lot, lower viscosity fluid for the colder temps, or blue rated so their amber turn lights can match their blue headlights.
Of course your friend might be too smart for this attack, in which case you'll have to try muffler bearings, clutch belts, 710 caps (for engine oil filling), piston return springs, or polishing pads with wear indicators.
You can find a wide assortment of placebo parts (that you can't actually buy) at KaleCoAuto.com
