That's interesting. To tell you the truth, I've never compared. I started using Chief 11-12 years ago, and they've always given me good service, so I stuck with them. -- Jay __!__ Jay and Teresa Masino ___(_)___ http://www2.ari.net/jmasino/ ! ! !

Problem with the Challenger which I find out after I bought one for my
io-540 is no wrench fits the lug. Most strange, but there it is. Gotta be metric but I'm surprised they would do that for a "plug-compatible" replacement... Ray "G.R.

Problem with the Challenger which I find out after I bought one for my
io-540 is no wrench fits the lug. Challenger sucks. We bought one and found the same thing -- no wrench in my tool box fit the lug. Then -- worst of all -- the thing is made out of a much heavier-gauge metal than the Champions. While at first this seemed like a good thing, it made cutting the filter open to inspect the filter damn-near impossible. In fact, it destroyed the cutting wheel on my filter cutter, requiring that I buy a new one. The two bucks I saved was more than lost in that expense, plus the extra time involved. Since then, it's only Champions on my O-540. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Inspecting your oil filter for debris is something that should be done at every oil change. Doing so before buying my plane saved me $5000. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Inspecting your oil filter for debris is something that should be done at
every oil change. Not necessarily. Lab work will detect microscopic particles, and may miss big chunks. The oil analysis for the engine that was in my plane (that was making metal in little slivers the size of fingernails) came back "normal". Cut 'em open, Hank. It take two minutes with the proper tool, and can save you a bundle. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
