Abstract
A dis-attached, monlithic magnetic filter hand inserted into the inner chamber of an oil filter canister or a fuel line enables a non-skilled user to turn an ordinary oil filter into an improved magnetic filter for attracting particles less than 30 microns contained in the recycled oil, without a substantial reduction in flow through the oil filter. The inexpensive magnetic filter insert may be re-usable or disposable and includes various optional elongated profiles.
