Benefits
- Keeps your oil clean!
- Extends engine life.
- Extends oil changes from 25 to 50 hours (Lycoming and Continental engines, excluding radial engines).
- Many piston aircraft came equipped with and still only have an oil screen.
- Oil screens do nothing to protect your engine. An oil screen’s sole purpose is to catch particles when the engine starts making metal. Particles larger than 20 microns (.001”) will cause damage.
- Oil filters will trap tiny particles which can be found during filter element inspections, so you know you have a problem before it’s too late.
- Filters oil before the oil cooler, keeping any particles in the engine from ruining the oil cooler.
- Relocates the oil filter in a much more easily accessible location on applications with existing OEM filter adapters.
- Oil changes take minutes, not hours. Ends messy oil changes!
- Kits weigh less than 5lbs for opposed engines.
- *Kits do not include hoses unless where indicated.

Reviews
Excellent product. We tried using the other oil filter adapters for our C-182Q but the positioning between the engine mount and cross-firewall brace was barely 1/8. This product met our need and will make oil changes a breeze in the future.

Airwolf Continental Kit AFC-K008-C
Need to specify the kit does not include the hoses. Ad shows hoses included.
The final installed product is great. The O-300 kit however does not include the parts needed to attach the oil temp probe. That should be included in the kit as every O-300 that I know of has the oil temp probe going into the oil screen. Getting the required parts has been a pain in the neck. Airwolf customer service gave us the runaround and kept passing the buck until I finally nailed down a sales guy with the drawings and pointed out exactly which parts we needed which will end up costing us another hundred bucks. Good product, lousy customer service.
