Tim,
I bought the "cheap" LED bulbs at Murray's Auto Parts last time I was having 
trouble with the stock bulbs. Like Jack, the real problem wasn't the bulb, 
a dirty socket in my case, but I left the LEDs in place. They are a trifle 
reluctant to flash at idle, but so were the stock bulbs; over 1000rpm they 
work just fine. I have no idea what flasher relay I am using, but it 
certainly has not been changed recently, probably not in the last 10 years.
