Buy them by the case because they are as scarce as unicorns. AS substituted 48109’s for the 48108-2’s I ordered. In my case it fits, they are the same just 2” longer. Glad to have them

I have been very pleased with al of my dealings with your firm. I received a package which failed to contain the dozen spark plugs I ordered and I was pleasantly surprised that you take the time to weigh your packages and could tell immediately I was shorted and your team was great at fixing the problem.

Usually get my filters from Spruce. Noticed that the last filters were dry lube and some were older stock that were not.
Not a big deal...I usually wipe the dry lube off and apply DC4 anyways. The first dry lube filter I used in April weeped.

A little cheaper than Champion, and contain a magnet to remove any steel particles.
The filter can is made from heavy duty steel, and the inside appears to be well made too. The magnet is an excellent feature. When I change filters the magnet has a small amount of dark ferrous metal dust on it.

I used this filter on my Light Sport Rotax 912. It is definitely a piece of mind, knowing that the filter now has the safety wire attached. I cant understand why Rotax doesnt provide the tabs for a safety wire.

I previously used Champions but switched to the Tempest. Though we always cut the filter after oil changes and check for metal, having the magnet it the Tempest gives a little extra chance to collect and see magnetic metals.

Tempest is the best whether it is their oil flilters or their spark plugs. Superior to Champion, especially their UREM38S fine wire spark plugs. The magnet in the oil filters do their job. Great products from this company!

Ordered 6 Tempest Oil Filters at a price less than any other competitor. They arrived within the time specified. My only complaint was the packing material of styrofoam peanuts rather than crumpled paper. When I opened the box at my hanger the wind blew a bunch all over the hanger and I had to spend time cleaning them up.

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.

For several years since I purchased my 1975 Cessna 150M I used the Champion 48108 short filter when I changed oil. The previous owner installed an Airwolf remote oil filter so a few oil changes ago I decided to try the longer Tempest 48109 filter. It works great and I get almost an extra pint of oil into the system. It does as good (if not better) a job as Champion, and costs less!

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

Good filters. However, remove the paint from the 1 Nut used to remove it before installation. Your socket will not fit very well and the paint seems to lubricate and causes the socket to slip and now you are stuck trying to remove it the old fashioned way. It created an unbelievable mess.
I discussed this issue with a rep at Sun N Fun last year. He gave me a vague response.
Chris K

I had the same difficulty in removing the filter as Cody S mentioned. I installed the filter myself,
so I know it was not over torqued. I followed the directions and refrained from lubricating the
sealing gasket. Apparently the solid lubricant Tempest is so proud of didn’t work. From now
on I’ll be applying DC4 to gaskets on Tempest filters.

Changing a customers oil in his SR-22, I had a hell of a time removing the Tempest oil filter. It could have been over torqued during the last oil change, (not done by me), but definitely not EZ.
Cody S

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).
