    Need some helpful advice quick. I was changing the valve body on my 2002 Saturn SL2 and dropped a razor blade down in the gear area. Tried fishing it out with a magnet with no luck. Is there a better way of getting it out.

    Can you fit one of those multi-joint super long needle nose pliers or a very long hemostat down in there? Both have the advantage of not having to have the handles open very wide to get the tiny opening of the jars at the other end the width of a razor blade

    You can also try back wrapping something like electrical or monster tape such that the sticky side is out and put it on your magnetic retriever. Just make sure there is no effing way that tape can come off while down in there
