Great product however order AN913-1D’s to plug extra holes otherwise you may be waiting for additional parts while installing. Aztec needs one plug each side, no sure about other aircraft.

We installed this on our Cherokee 180. I wish we had done it a long time ago. No more fusing with the OEM part! The Steves unit is finely machined and a joy to look at. Expect to have to fuss with the Piper mounting bracket to get it flat and to do some minor cowling work to accommodate the drain valve. Be sure to order the 90 degree fitting for the drain.

This is an excellent design and solution for my leaky gascolator on my Piper Cherokee. I would suggest Aircraft Spruce add the 90 Deg fitting (AN914-1D) to the recommended parts as it is listed in the Steves Aircraft Cherokee Hints. It could have saved me from having to make an additional purchase where my shipping was more than the part cost so I could get my plane back up flying. As far as I can tell the Cherokee Hints paper is only shipped in the box with the STC and instalation instructions.

Ordered SA3-00B as called for on a 1957 172. First one arrived was obviously a used return. Pipe putty residue all over unit and in threads. Immediately called into ACS and asked for overnight shipping since my plane was down for annual. Rep agreed. Replacement arrived next day, this one brand new. Installed without issue and was pleasantly surprised to see zero modifications needed done to the airframe for install. Unit bolted up to OEM bracket and all lines installed perfectly. New system is simple, elegant and seemingly reliable. Replaced tall glass-bowl unit with terrifically awkward latching mechanism.

Very happy with product. Easily replaced my previous gascolator and is manufactured with high quality. STC paperwork was included as well as installation instruction. Highly recommend this product.

The 1/4npt taps could have been 2 or 3 turns deeper, but still a nice part.

Theae are great units and well worth installing . This review is for a c-150M. This does not bolt directly to the oem mount. You must buy a bracket and spruce doesnt carry it. The braket must be drilled to match and is made of stainless. The instructions mention back drilling but that is not going to happen. It must be marked, removed,drilled and re-installed. Also, for the 1976 150, the fittings do not line up exactly and the unit must be mounted slightly off center to even work. I am afraid Steves did not do an excellent job with the bracket design. One mounting hole interferes with the oem mount and a clearance hole must be drilled. Not a bad installation when done but more work than it should be.

Q: Do you sell replacement o-rings for these gascolators?

Q: Are the diameters mentioned in reference chart(1/2", 3/8") are inner or outer ones? Which fittings and drain plugs shall I use with SA3-10A(05-00894)?

The 3/8" National Pipe Thread is actually 1/2" inside diameter. The drain valve is a 1/8 npt , preferably a Curtis 1550 valve (05-01869).
