What is the purpose of placing a magnet on a car's exhaust pipe?

Placing a magnet on a car's exhaust pipe serves the following purposes: 1. It can help the fuel burn more completely; 2. It can improve the car's power output and reduce fuel consumption; 3. It also provides good protection for the car's engine and enhances its power. When a car's engine is running, oil backflow occurs, generating many iron particles. These iron particles can travel along the oil circuit into the engine, and over time, they can affect the engine's efficiency, leading to increased fuel consumption. By placing a magnet on the exhaust pipe, these iron particles can be effectively adsorbed, preventing them from entering the engine. This protects the car's engine, and protecting the engine is equivalent to improving the car's power.
I've been driving an older car and installed magnets on the exhaust pipe, mainly to adsorb fine iron debris from engine wear, preventing them from clogging the exhaust pipe and corroding the inner walls. After three years of use, my exhaust pipe still looks like new, and the sound remains smooth. This method is quite practical—just attach strong magnets to the pipe opening, saving a lot of cleaning hassle. My friends say my car's exhaust has always been clean. However, be careful not to use ordinary magnets, as high temperatures may melt them; opt for high-temperature-resistant models instead. Regularly check the magnets' condition to ensure they don’t fall off and affect safety. I think car owners can give it a try—extending component lifespan saves money and hassle, spending a little for worry-free driving.
