    Pros

    The fuel tester worked as expected and it appears to be of good quality. No complaints

    Cons

    The part of the set that collects the gasoline from the tester was difficult to attach, it leaked the gasoline all over my hands and the top the needed to be opened to emply the gasoline was difficult to open.

    General Comments

    I'd give 5 stars to the tester and 0 stars to the collecting device.

    Good solid tester with a strainer that will keep out particulate

    Cons

    Your had will get wet with fuel from pulling the filter top on and off. Metal screen accumulates condensation during humid conditions with cool fuel samples.

    General Comments

    This sampler fits the bill in taking small samples of fuel. After taking each sample, I filter the fuel into a clean jar before climbing back up the wing of my Cessna - this alleviates the drawback of only being able to draw a small sample each time.

    The pin is too short for my Maule gascolator drains so is really useless to me. Also, I have no clue, and there were no instructions for, what the removal side piece is for?

    Pros

    Just what the doctor ordered for environmental concerns. Well made and quite handy. Does what the bulkier GATS jar does and stows in less space.

    Cons

    The extra step of placing the strainer on top of the tester after sampling makes it slightly less convenient than the GATS jar.

    KEEP YOUR FUEL IN THE GAS TANK AND OFF THE TARMAC.

    Heavy construction, should last awhile. I like the attachement to pour fuel back into the tanks or my tow motor.

    Cons

    Handle on the unit is awkward and kept coming off. Therefore I took it off and do not use it. Plastic on plastic fit for the filter is tight.

    Excellent replacement to that oversized GATS jar. It's small and fits in any flight bag.

    Cons

    The blue lids sometimes get in the way when pouring the fuel back into the tank or they come off...anyway, they keep the dirt out.
