Perhaps one of the exotic metal, 'high-strength' magnets just
slapped on the outside of the plug? People sell magnet bands to go
around spin-on oil filters.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">As to
overdrive pistons, I had a fairly torrid time with those
quite recently. I should be inclined to ask Dave Twigger
at Overdrive Spares. I’m pretty sure that he sells all
types ie the AHSpares version, the original type and – I
think – the DW type. He supplies them to all and sundry.
Ask him which he thinks is best for your application. </p>

see the washer inside the piston casing in any of the
photos. Most people insert them these days and I think
they claim an extra 20 or so PSI.</p>
