haha fuel magnets, funny.....

I do have the filter-mag slapped on all my vehicles including our new yaris and the less small metal particles floating around suspended in the oil, the longer the oil will last and the less friction drag associated across the bearings which can possibly add to slight increases in acceleration & gas mileage though most probably wont notice any short term benefits, long term engine wear will be the sure test.

drain plug magnet is a great way of telling just what is floating around in suspension, but the filter-mag is the only real way to capture it before its force circulated to all critical bearings
