What a surprise... Chock-up another 'proprietary' interest for high-priced Cessna parts.

Instead of $6.75 for the Cessna fuel strainer kit that Chief Aircraft no longer carries (P/N TKIVT1 - with O-rings that meet M83248/1 specs and manufactured by Viton), it will now cost you $26.95 (or more) for the same items from Cessna!~

I asked the sales rep at Chief what the deal was, and was advised TKI no longer makes the kit. Gee, I wonder why...

One of the gaskets that was included in the Chief Aircraft kit, which fits above the filter, is alone list priced at $13 bucks... what a RIP-OFF.

Does anyone have alternative sources?

As far as I'm able to ascertain, the fuel strainers on the Skymaster are the very same ones that have been used on ALL of the single-engine series since the beginning of time.
