Calum122 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Surely an ally plug is better, you want the plug to strip before the thing you're screwing in to no? Anyone know the size for the gearbox? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
atlex Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 (edited) These aren't that effective in engines since a lot of the wear is non-magnetic material (bearing material especially). The best thing is spending more on good filters like Mann or Mahle/Knecht or OEM. They are more effective in gearbox/diffs for sure.. There's almost purely magnetic particles there and no filter.
