My Alfetta turn signals were flashing slowly. I thought it was
just a leisurely
Italian attribute. Occasionally, the indicator lamp on the dash
would stop
flashing. All the lamps were working.

I replaced the directional indicators relay with a 3 terminal
flasher from
Kragen - Buss BP/550 (less than $5) and now it works great. Even
the dash
lamp indicator is brighter. The replacement had a rolled edge at
the bottom
that prevented it from going into the socket in the fuse box but
I Dremeled
off a little and it plugged right in.
