Curious if anyone has used a product like Vapor Trapper in their setups. I have quite a bit of smell coming from the vent line of my modified in tank pump assembly. I hear this product works well with classic cars and modified classics but was hoping for a cheaper solution. The Vapor Trapper with mounting brackets is $349. I’m tired of my garage smelling of gas as well as the passenger compartment. |

I am lucky enough to have the plastic late canister. The end pops right off and I replaced the original charcoal with fresh from a fish tank supply. Problem solved. FYI I threw the old charcoal in the trash and it smelled for two weeks.

Same here, mines in the engine bay. If you can find one, get the plastic can and swap out the charcoal. |
