Over the past few days I have hits from searches wondering if potato chips are Kosher for Passover. Well, it depends on the oil they are fried in. Corn, soy and peanut would not be acceptable. As far as I know, sunflower seed oil is OK but you might want to check it out further because I'm not positive. There seems to be considerable debate from year to year and it varies by group as well (for example, Sephardic Jews eat rice during Passover).
You can of course buy kosher potato chips, which eliminates the guesswork. There used to be a brand we bought on the East coast called "Dirty Potato Chips" where they did not wash off the potato starch making a crunchier chip. They were pretty good chips. If you can find them, they're worth the extra money.
