<span style="font-family:helvetica;font-size:12pt">I discovered that one of the spare TR crankshafts I have is magnetized. I acquired it years ago. It has a fresh 10/10 regrind and it is a candidate for friend's rebuild. I was knocking it's damaged flywheel dowel pin out when I noticed the drift stuck to the flange. Can anyone shed some light on this? The crank is being sent to a shop for cleaning, crack check and full inspection. Perhaps the crank had been "magna"fluxed and not properly demagnetized afterward. I don't think a magnetized crank would be good to use. It would attract particles. </span>
