    Regular oil changes are probably your best insurance, along with one of the better quality filters.
    Ever try sticking a magnet onto an inverted filter can and offering particles up into the can ?

    Could you make your own magnetic plug by epoxying a magnet to the end of the oem plug?

    You could, just ensure that its a strong magnet and secured well.
