Vapor Trapper

$319.99

Vapor Trapper billet charcoal canister for vented fuel tanks in classic truck builds, 6- or 8-inch 6061 billet with rechargeable media that stops fuel smell.

  • Kills the raw gas smell - the charcoal traps the vapor a vented tank puts into your garage.
  • Billet; not plastic - machined 6061 aluminum instead of an OEM canister zip tied under a bed.

  • Universal by design - goes in line with any tank vent hose using #6 ORB fittings and two 2-1/2 inch clamps.
  • Lifetime warranty - Shop 48 backs every part they build.
  • Made in the USA - manufactured and assembled in Arizona.

Does your vehicle constantly smell like raw gas? Do you hate keeping it in the garage because it makes the whole garage and house smell like gas? The Vapor Trapper is a high-quality billet aluminum charcoal vapor canister specifically designed to reduce/eliminate fuel odors from vehicles in which their fuel tanks vent to atmosphere. It is the only aftermarket, universally designed, charcoal vapor canister on the market. The Vapor Trapper was made for all cars, trucks, hotrods, boats and everything in between! The Vapor Trapper is easy to install and comes with a lifetime warranty. They are manufactured using 6061 billet aluminum and built to last a lifetime. They are rechargeable meaning the charcoal contents can be replaced when they eventually become saturated. This will be the last charcoal canister you will ever need for your vehicle!

With the new trend of adding modern fuel injection to your vehicle, manufacturers of these EFI systems, fuel cells and custom builders have not been able to answer this huge problem of the raw gas smell. Shop48 set out to provide a solution to this growing problem by developing the Vapor Trapper.  Now you can eliminate the raw gas smell with this great new product!

Nothing else on the market is as high-quality and effective as the Vapor Trapper. Installation is simple and straightforward since it is installed in line with your fuel tank vent hose using practically any inlet/outlet configuration. The Vapor Trapper is proudly manufactured and assembled in the USA, right here in our home state of Arizona!

Disclaimer: This product is NOT intended to be emissions compliant or to be used to replace factory emissions equipment on any vehicle requiring them. All responsibility for safe installation and maintenance of this product is the purchaser's responsibility.

Installation: The Vapor Trapper can be easily mounted using two 2-1/2” clamps put in line with your fuel tank vent line. Use #6 AN O-ring Boss fitting (barb fittings with a rubber fuel hose or a threaded AN fitting for a more custom installation). Make sure to install the Vapor Trapper, or at least the inlet line, far above the fuel tank to avoid liquid fuel getting into the filter. Fuel getting into the Charcoal media drastically reduces the performance of this product.
