Marami ako hardisk na sira. Bigay nun isang hotel na customer ko. Kaya nito punuin ng magnet nito iyon ilalim ng oil cover ng engine.

Just got my car serviced in one of my trusted shops, the usual change oil and tune up,
After letting the old oil drain, i asked the mechanic if the magnetic oil drain plug would be of ok
Quality to replace my stock drain plug, he said, pwede naman daw, medyo alanganin lang kasi aluminum,
May chance na matanggalan ng ulo pag napasobra pihit, hindi ko nalang tinuloy, ayaw din nya kabit eh,
mas madali daw ispotan ang bakal na natanggalan ng ulo lesa aluminum, epic fail ang magnetic drain plug ko,
Might be buying the real thing next time, ill post pics ulit pag nakabili na ako orig. hehe.
Charge to experience nalang..

Ang mahal ng experience, 700 pesos..

Usually pag aluminum bumibilog pag hinihigpitan. Just use the hard disk magnet sa oil filter, secure it na lang with steel belt ba tawag dun, yung may screw

Hindi naman natatagal basta basta yung hard drive magnet sa filter. Sa akin naka dikit lang

Dapat kasi gumamit ng torque wrench.

yung normal drain plug with 14mm hex head, AFAIK 44 N-m dapat ang torque. Kung aluminum, maybe half of that lang. :D
