My buddy Joel put a rare earth magnet in a plug that's removed to drain the engine oil on my Harley. I 'might' have the only one of it's kind. :shrug:
Kind of interesting as the magnet is shrouded in aluminum.
If you had an Indian you wouldn't have to worry about catching magnetic pieces.........
:rofl2:
Attachment 303988You said the 'I' word:nono:
Actually I don't care what anyone rides--as long as they ride and enjoy doing so :tu
Plug into a grommet or something, Roy?
I always flush my shavings out. No need to catch them and cry! :cry:
There is a neoprene hose that goes from the tank and that plug attaches to a clip on the frame--the diagram doesn't show the whole hose but it's outlined in red--

Here's where it attaches to the frame--

Gotcha....Only Harley Davidson could come-up with that!
So....You will be looking at the heaviest shavings, I suppose? ;)
Well hopefully there won't be any shavings at all :tu
The drain plugs for the transmission and the primary all have a magnetic tip on them. I just figured it would be a good addition.
I serviced my bike right before I put it up for the winter so it'll be awhile before I'll be putting the plug in. I don't think that the hose has enough play in it to get it higher than the tank and I don't want a petroleum Old Faithful on my hands.:roflmao
The honest truth! :D
I do think magnets are handy.
Heading-off a disaster is handy as-well?
Catching normal wear and keeping the fuzz out of the flow is good for longevity, I expect.
