The GATS Jar is the first and finest fuel analysis tester capable of separating non-petroleum contaminants and thereby purifying water and debris from contaminated AVGAS and Jet fuel.

The GATS Jar allows extracted fuel to be put back into the aircraft instead of on the ground without the fear of reintroducing contaminants back into the fuel system.

Once the fuel is sampled, the built-in screen separates solids and  non-petroleum contaminants so that only clean fuel is returned to the tank.  It also gives a visual display of AVGAS contaminated by jet fuel, and can be used with any petroleum fuel grade and octane, including Jet A fuel, automotive gasoline, and diesel fuel.  

Made of strong plastic with a wide mouth.  Holds 12 ounces.

Lowest Price Guaranteed!

If you find a better price elsewhere on this product we will Match that price and beat it by 10% of the difference. See Details.

Ecologically friendly to sample fuel

  • By Robert. CFI from Tega Cay SC USA on Thursday, August 08, 2024
  • Pros: Great sample visibility, love the water separation, no longer wasting fuel samples or dropping the sample on the ground.
  • Review: Met my expectations.
    Only thing that I would change is the lid seal o ring, I would prefer a larger sealing area like an aircraft fuel cap seal.

It broke in a few weeks

  • By Rob from Brush Prairie WA USA on Monday, August 05, 2024
  • Pros: hydrophobic screen prevents water in your fuel sample getting returned to the fuel tank
  • Review: The materials are junk, really. The cap likes to crack, this is the second jar I bought in about a year, and it broke in under a month. I ended up just super-gluing the cap onto the jar.

Thin Plastic

  • By Jarrod from Pensacola, FL on Friday, July 22, 2022
  • Pros: Does what it's intended to
  • Review: It does what it's supposed to do, but the plastic for the "jar" is very thin. So thin that if you squeeze it slightly the top pops off. I'm actually kind of disappointed since the description says it's a "strong plastic" and it really isn't.

Works well for wing tanks, not so well on gascolators

  • By Steven from St Michaels MD USA on Thursday, April 28, 2022
  • Pros: Easy to drain sample, easy to see it through the container.
  • Review: The fuel strainer has a clear container to receive the fuel sample and a metal probe that goes into the drain fitting to release the sample. It works perfectly on wing tanks that are accessible from underneath the wing.
    However, when you try to sample a gascolator, which usually has a drain sticking out at a near horizontal angle from the cowling, gravity is no longer helping you and it's possible to spill the fuel.
    Once the fuel is in the clear container there's no problem looking at it to see if it's contaminated. After that, you can pour the sample back into the tank with a very closely spaced mesh strainer taking out any debris. However, if you see water at the bottom you should probably dump the contents since I'm not sure if the strainer can also keep water out.

This fuel tester works as described.

  • By Michael from Huber Heights OH USA on Thursday, September 24, 2020
  • Pros:
  • Review: This fuel tester works as described. However, if your goal is to simply test and not return fuel, my suggestion is to buy the little fuel cup.

  • By Steven from St Michaels MD USA on Thursday, April 28, 2022
  • Pros: Easy to drain sample, easy to see it through the container.

    However, when you try to sample a gascolator, which usually has a drain sticking out at a near horizontal angle from the cowling, gravity is no longer helping you and it's possible to spill the fuel.
