74098, Magnetic Oil Drain Bolt

Does this seem worth it or not? Helps filter engine oil better.

Actually the bolt is really designed to help you catch problems early. When you change your oil if you have metal on itobiously its a notice to start plannign a rebuild. This will not stop a bolt from bouncing around in your oil pan....:)
