Vapor Trapper

  Fuel vapor odors are a common issue in vehicles that vent their fuel systems directly to the atmosphere. Classic cars, hot rods, race vehicles, boats, and custom builds are especially prone to this problem. A vapor canister is a reliable and effective solution designed to capture fuel vapors before they escape improving safety comfort and air quality. What Is a Vapor Canister? A vapor canister is a fuel vapor filtration device that uses activated charcoal to absorb hydrocarbon fumes. Installed inline with the fuel tank vent, the canister allows the fuel system to breathe while preventing gasoline vapors from entering the environment. Unlike factory evaporative emissions systems a vapor canister operates passively without electronics or engine management components. Why Fuel Vapors Need to Be Controlled As fuel warms and expands vapors naturally form inside the tank. When these vapors are vented directly into the air they can cause: Strong gasoline odors in garages and enclose...

  If you’ve ever walked into your garage and been hit with the strong smell of gasoline you’re not alone. Fuel odors are a common issue in classic cars hot rods, race vehicles boats and custom builds. The root cause is usually unfiltered fuel vapors escaping from the fuel tank vent. A fuel vapor filter is one of the most effective and straightforward solutions to control these vapors and keep your space clean and safe. What Is a Fuel Vapor Filter? A fuel vapor filter is a device installed inline with the fuel tank vent system that captures gasoline vapors before they are released into the air. Inside the filter is activated charcoal  a highly porous material designed to absorb hydrocarbon vapors while still allowing air to pass through. This ensures proper tank ventilation without releasing raw fuel fumes. Why Fuel Vapors Are a Problem Gasoline naturally produces vapors as it heats up and expands. These vapors must escape the fuel tank to prevent pressure buildup. In many veh...
