Review on Mishimoto MMODP 2015B Magnetic Drain Black by Dan Brickley

Revainrating 1 out of 5

DO NOT BUY! - Transmission and Parts

Bought for my 370Z and first use went fine but on next oil change the head broke off leaving a threaded stem and magnet in my sump. I used a torque wrench set at 24 ft lbs (spec 22-29) and the wrench has yet to work on my torque setting. The head detached somewhere below the 24 ft-lb setting. With the car jacked up in the driveway and no oil in the engine, this could be a very expensive problem. Luckily, I was able to pry the broken stem out of the drain hole with my fingertip. Since I couldn't find the original, I had to go to the local auto parts store to buy a standard drain plug. I don't think I will try any other of them.

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Not bad
