Rest your fears and stop the hand wringing. The horns use the same fluids as the blinkers.I use 5 wt blinker fluid with success- $16 for 4 fluid ounces at Auto Checker Zone and $1.98 at Walmart.

I think my blinker oil needs changing, its got too thin! the front blinker is blinking too fast and the rear has stopped. I'm thinking about using 7wt to slow them down a little. Any tips?

Well, if you ask radman, he'll tell you to mix in an oz. or two of STP, too.

Anybody know what G. McCoy sells horn oil for? I need a refresh before WFO...

 
I lost my first pair of Magnum Blaster horns after too aggressive a wash. They went from sounds that stop trains in their tracks to peeping like Tweety Bird. I cut out pieces of speaker cloth and glued them to the openings of the replacement horns. They now have survived torrential rains and bike washings, although I'm now careful not to squirt water up the horns (the openings face downwards).

Ditto here as well, So when my mech did a service I got him to check them out...turns out one had water in it he emptied it out and they work fine. I too am little bit more sensitive now about where I point the hose!

 
It's time to coin another term.

Zombie Blaster (n) 1. A Magnum Blaster that comes back to life after dying in an awful drowning incident.

My bike has a Zombie Blaster. This is Thriller.

 
Had the same problem with horns facing downward. Turned horns so that the outlet end would almost hold water and have not had any problems lately. Water hose will still __________ em up.
