it doesnt need to "suck it up" hit a pot whole and bounce it into a rod or crank, maybe even hit the piston head and crack it or anything, ya dont cheap out!! pull the pan, nothing loose should be in there, if it was a debris magnet, you wouldnt be able to move it or it would be flat, like in some tranny pans, sounds like a bolt fell outSrt10ram said:Even if it is free floating could the motor suck it right up?
