STP SMO-18

Importer
Champion Labs ,sold under the STP name
Evaluation date
November 2001

This filter was donated to the cause by Stacey Wakefield. Thanks!

The low-down: square-section gasket, good looking anti-drainback seal, and an excellent looking filter element. Made in South Africa for Champion.

Note: Champion Labs is a manufacturer, as well as an importer. There is no guarantee that all STP-branded filters will be constructed like this, or that they are made by the same entity. In fact, the OEM may change without notice, so if you use STP filters, be watchful for changes in the packaging or spin-on itself. In fact, the casing of this one differs from the one on the Maximum Suzuki page. Other than that, it appears to be the same.
