Magnetic Inline Aux Tranny Filter?
Snake Oil or a quality product? Anybody have any experience with one. They go for $20, figure it might be worth a shot, or are all the metal particles mostly in the bottom of the pan?

I've got a Magnefine inline tranny filter on the Accord. It feels good to have one on there especially since those cars don't even have a tranny filter... I cut it open and there was metal shavings all over the magnet. There is also a filter element inside. It wouldn't hurt to have one on the truck but it already has a filter and magnet in the pan and I have to cut the metal tranny lines so I ditched the idea.

changed the tranny fluid/filter this weekend. What a mess w/out a drain plug. But what I really wanted to see was a magnet at the bottom of the pan w/no metal shavings attached. Well, no magnet at all and I'm guessing it's because it's a rebuilt tranny?
Anyhow I stuck a small magnet to the inside of the pan and reinstalled it all. Hope the magnet doesn't come loose, anyone else done this?
