- Continental (TCM) P/N 649922
- Internal bypass valve: usable on any TCM engine with or without a bypass valve in the oil filter adapter

- Champion-recommended filter for Cessna adapter 1250922-5
Construction and filtration
Champion's full-pleat, resin-impregnated micronic filter media traps harmful particles, including metallic chips from abnormal engine wear. Because oil flows through many layers of locked-in fibers, there is no fiber migration to clog engine oil passages or affect bearing surfaces.
- Stronger center tube: redesigned for collapse pressures more than double Champion's previous design
- Thicker-walled can for improved structural integrity
- Seaming lid approximately 35% thicker, for higher burst and impulse test performance
- Eight-hole inlet (previously four) for approximately 30% greater inlet flow area
- Coil spring (replacing the earlier leaf spring) and rolled baseplate thread
- Anti-drainback valve and silicone-impregnated installation gasket (attached; aids future removal)
Fit
Typical applications (Champion application chart): Cessna 150, 172 (A-H), 180, 182, 185, 206, 210, 310, 337, 340 and 401/402; Beechcraft Bonanza (IO-470) and Baron 58P/58TC; Cirrus SR20; Diamond DA20-C1; Mooney M20K; Piper Seneca II/III.
Many TCM engines have been modified per TCM service bulletins M74-2 or M86-6 (Rev. 1), Cessna conversion kits or local field approval, which may require a different filter part number. Confirm against your engine and airframe manufacturer data before installation.
