I think so. Especially after finishing a rebuilt motor. There's a shitload of metal shards in there

 

chill the expletive out man, i didn't know they carried them at autozone, and the whole purpose of this post was to see if i could get the generic NON JDM ****, you people kill me flaming all the time

exactly what i was thinking

 

Actually we DONT carry them at autozone. I work there. We have a few, mostly for V6 fords and chevys though.

For a Honda, youll need a drain plug sized M14-1.25, which autozone does NOT carry in magnetic, at least not in north texas. But the stocking items tend to be the same everywhere, so i doubt the autozone near you has one. not to rain on your parade or anything.

to the OP, just make sure you get a sized 14 drainplug with a pitch of 1.25 for the threads, and you should be fine.

 

isnt most of a honda motor aluminum? what parts could be shedding metal that would stick to this magnetic plug?

 

that's what the oil filter is for.

 

you have one of benses trannys? I bet the gearing is sick.

but seriously to stay on topic, the oil filter wont catch all the metal shavings. most of them just keep circulating

bearings I think. Trust me I'm not full of ****. I'll take a pic next time I change my oil.

 

LOL if you think the Honda engine is only aluminum I guess you have never seen the inside. What do you think the valves, crank, rods, bearings, rings, pan, cam, springs and sleeves are made of???? Oh yea they are Steel.

Basically every part that touches another moving part is made out of steel. That is where your shavings are coming from. Yes the filter removes alot of the shavings but do you take apart your filter after every oil change, probably not. The magnetic plug is a good indicator of what is happening inside of your engine.

 

they have them at Pepboys.

 

i got the password drain plug and its really nice with the little logo on the tip of it and ive pulled small shards so id say its been nice 2 have... but yea i looked in autozone to buy one first and they didnt have it so i just got the jdm one
