magnets and mufflers

[IOPort51]

I thought this was funny.
I use several of the magnetic bowl parts holders to help keep track of nuts and bolts and such. I think they are a really good idea and they will stick just about any where I need to have an extra hand, even up side down. I did find that it is a mistake to stick one on the muffler, at least when you forget about it and set the time and adjust the carb and look for vacuum leaks and basically let the muffler get hot. I was a little startled and/or very impressed with the power of the magnet when I reached over and tried to remove it.






I got it off alright, just had to let the muffler get hot again. Kind of trashed the plastic coat on the bowl magnet.

Maybe you just had to be there.

The Earth's magnetic field will change in 2012 and magnets will no longer stick to stuff.

On the bright side, folks will no longer need to wear pacemakers
