Tempest AT-SG Fuel Gascolator

Description

Owners of high-wing and low-wing general-aviation aircraft rely on fuel system maintenance to catch contamination before it reaches the engine. The Tempest AT-SG Fuel Gascolator is designed for pilots and mechanics who need straightforward sediment and water removal in the fuel line. This type of bowl-and-screen assembly sits between the fuel tank and carburetor or fuel injection system, trapping particles and allowing moisture to settle for visual inspection and periodic draining.

Before purchasing, verify compatibility with your aircraft’s fuel system type and flow requirements—gascolators are not universal across Cessna, Piper, and Beechcraft models, and installation location matters. Check your maintenance manual or consult a mechanic to confirm the Tempest AT-SG fits your specific fuel-system configuration and that any existing hardware can be reused. Regular inspection and cleaning of the bowl and screen are essential to prevent fuel starvation or system restriction.
