#93134 Mark7 (User) Look for me on MSN chat if you want. Platinum Boarder Posts: 1033 Magnetic Oil Plugs - Useful or a Myth? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   Feedback from the group on whether these are worth messing with would be appreciated.

It's only money you'd probably spend towards dumb stuff like chrome, leather, lights, etc. Greyphart   Logged     www.greyphart.webs.com   The administrator has disabled public write access. #93144 Clifford (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 489 Re:Magnetic Oil Plugs - Useful or a Myth? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   Whatever metal particles are stuck to the magnet are NOT floating around with the oil possibly doing damage.

I would rather trap the stuff in the filter than in my motor. Just my opinion.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #93148 Moondog (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 336 Re:Magnetic Oil Plugs - Useful or a Myth? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I have seen people use cow magnets on the oil filter.

If you can get them out you definitely want them on your filter. They ain't comin' off either. Good alternative.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1518 Re:Magnetic Oil Plugs - Useful or a Myth? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   Mark7, I don't know for sure that the magnetic oil plugs I put in are really doing anything. Maybe - maybe I'll see some metal shavings this weekend when I do my first oil change since putting them in. But I took the tack that I needed smaller-head plugs anyway to get rid of the problems taking the 17mm bolt out of the front. And at $1.99 apiece, it just couldn't hurt to put them in.   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access. #93172 Greysnake (User) BB sold all the beer and bought a stratoliner. Platinum Boarder Posts: 2877 Re:Magnetic Oil Plugs - Useful or a Myth? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I've got them in mine and they do grab some small stuff.   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #93198 Heavy (User) If you're going to play - play to win! Senior Boarder Posts: 254 Re:Magnetic Oil Plugs - Useful or a Myth? 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I have eight small Neodymium disc magnets stuck in various places on the underside of my motorcycle - but not to collect metal shavings. Ever pull up to a stoplight on your bike and wait and wait and wait because it never changes? Ever notice those lines they cut in the asphalt just before the light? There are magnetic sensors in those grooves that detect when a car drives over it, activating the signal to change. My roadie will activate MOST of them, but there was one light in particular I went through almost every day that the roadie just wouldn't trigger (too much aluminum and not enough iron underneath that thing, I guess). Anyway, all of those magnets stuck under the bike seem to make a difference. I don't have to wait at that light forever anymore.   Logged     Yes, as a matter of fact I DID have the right-of-way!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #93201 bushrjackson (User) she's pretty EH?
