Are you in the habit of buying things that you don't know what they do then?

Obviously its meant to point at the road incase you drive over any loose change :s

Not if he gets inside the sump! However, getting out will be a problem.

I've heard using hard drive magnets (fecking strong) to put round your oil filter works a treat, BUT if they fall off, it may dislodge a load of metal at one time!

Just to clear things up, the small seperate magnet (about the size of a small watch battery) is to go on your oil filter

That's right Pete, to buy them they normally come in packs of 6 to be spaced out around the filter. These are individual samples in with the drain plugs i believe. Just wanted to clear it up before one ended up loose inside someone's sump

Would it end up loose though? The sump plugs can hold a hell of a lot of tools
