Txbyker Posted February 18, 2017 Report Posted February 18, 2017 Bummer. Bought bulk Champion filters and all of the have rust like this pic. Throw them away? Russ
jetdriven Posted February 18, 2017 Report Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) Champion quality. Just like their spark plugs and slick magnetos. you can use it. The clean oil flows out from center to the bearings. So as long as the inside center is not rusted it will be ok. Edited February 18, 2017 by jetdriven 1
slowflyin Posted February 18, 2017 Report Posted February 18, 2017 I quit them after having the same issue. I'm now a tempest user and won't ever go back. A bonus...Tempest has a magnet!Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1

N201MKTurbo Posted February 19, 2017 Report Posted February 19, 2017 Rust, I've heard of that stuff. We don't have it here...
Zwaustin Posted February 19, 2017 Report Posted February 19, 2017 Probably no issue but regardless would not be going on my engine, not worth it. 1
carusoam Posted February 19, 2017 Report Posted February 19, 2017 Interesting source of iron oxide that may appear in you oil analysis... PP thoughts, not a mechanic... Best regards, -a-
