AA48109 TEMPEST OIL FILTER 6PK

Great product, good purchase experience. Filter is larger than champion and cheaper so its a much better product.

No complaints, never had a leak and I like the features like a magnet particle trap and pre-lubed seal.

Shipped quick and fair price

Good product.

Fast delivery

Arrived quickly, packaged well, product as expected

Very good product & mailed promptly.

Fine

Tempest filters offer superior quality while Champion skimps with Flimsy box for oil filters but charges a premium price 30% more. I always buy Tempest unless they do not make the filter

Good quality product

Fast shipping and well packaged.

Less expensive than competitor, and the EZ spin off is EZier on the brackets associated with my aircrafts Airwolf Remote Oil filter installation.

I recently switched from Champion to Tempest. These are great filters and have an internal magnet to trap any metal. They are also less expensive.

Delivered quickly via USPS.

I like not having to use any gasket lubricant during installation of the oil filter!!!

Overly priced but necessary. Never had an issue with This type of filter.

I do most oil changes myself. Ive used Tempest oil filters for several years. The new seal is interesting, but Id buy Tempest anyway.

Solid filter, EZ to use!

Its just another overpriced oil filter. What is there to rate? Well, you asked me to rate it.

I get some chiding from the mechanics when I bring the plane in for oil changes. They always look at me with a puzzled expression and ask, why dont I use the other one. I tell them I dont see the difference so why should I pay more. I have been using Tempest oil filters for over 10 years. Cant be more happy using them.

I find that these can be difficult to remove when installed dry and torqued per the instructions.

Tempest oil filter application guide said it will fit Cirrus SR22. I ordered 48109 and it did not fit because of the AC line. If you have air condition, use 48108-2

Ive been using Champion filters exclusively for the past 16 years of aircraft ownership, so I thought Id try the Tempest filter since they were slightly cheaper. Well, you get what you pay for. It started leaking from the nut/cap within the first hour of operation. In 34 years of flying I have NEVER seen a filter come apart like that. Needless to say, I went back to the Champion filter. Kudos to Aircraft Spruce for replacing the defective filter without question (and letting me pay the difference to get the Champion filter).
