It has a giant magnet in it that is supposed to take the metal out of the oil.

 

Make that metal like steel, not brass, Al, copper, etc...

correct. BTW it was your engine pic that lead me to finding the problem with my missfires!

 

Glad it helped. :) that's one reason I'm here. ;)

Can't wait till my thread is like this with resolution. I was afraid both my kids were gonna grow up and move away to college before I finish my build.

 

I was at that point too. I was ready to put a match to it after getting the engine in the second time and it still didn't run right. But when you finish it will be worth the wait!
