No more wire bales popping out of the cover or stripped thumb wheels or screws. Direct replacement for factory parts.

This was a direct replacement. I did have to purchase longer mounting bolts, but that was it. This is a piece of mind product. I highly recommend it.

GASCOLATOR SA3-10A W/ INST MAN0
A great upgrade to any aircraft, especially those with a “bail” which secured the bowl.

Works great and installation was easy! Im thinking they updated the gascoloator and it now doesnt need the 90 that everyone else recommended because the drain hole is now on the bottom and not the side of the bowl. Either way this is 1000 times better than the stock one.

GASCOLATOR SA3-00B W/INST MAN
Vast improvement over the original. On a PA 22-150 the straight-down sump valve is easier to use than the original angled version. As noted by others, pipe thread is a very tight fit for AN823-6D.
