ACDelco Charcoal Canister Plumbing with Sniper Help (1 Viewer)

[DrRock]

Hello All, Someone here posted a nice hand drawn picture of their plumbing schematic for using the ACDelco canister with a Sniper. For the life of me I can’t find this thread. I think the diagram was buried with some other topics but I haven’t had any luck finding it.

Can anyone point me in the right direction or provide a schematic for this canister and the check valve? If my memory serves me right, they also used a T fitting into the PCV vacuum line but beyond that I can’t remember what else was specified.

Thanks in advance for the help!

I know the drawing you are talking about, but don't have the link saved. Post 919 on this thread is helpful.

Awesome, thanks a ton. This is just what I needed. I’ve searched a bunch and still can’t find that drawing..

I looked for a while earlier too and can’t find it.

I can share pics of my setup that I’ve been running for a year or so but it’s modeled after the post in that thread I shared. I went through a ton of tank pressure issues and this solution fixed it.

I’m currently not having any tank pressure issues… yet. That said, I want to do this correctly so if you have pictures that’s great but don’t go out of your way as I can follow the ones in the post you referenced above. I’m also running the GM pressure regulator back near my tank so I don’t have hot fuel returning from the engine bay into the fuel tank which can’t help matters.

Are you asking about the VCV or the Purge Valve or ... ?

No, there was a diagram using a GM check valve to hook up to the vacuum and AC Delco charcoal canister. I’ve got a sniper so my only vacuum lines that exist are for dizzy advance, PCV and dizzy vent.

Not charcoal canister specific, but I thought I'd post a quesiton in the most recent Sniper thread...

Considering buying the Sniper kit from Mosley motors but I asked them a question on their Contact page (both using the form and the text line) and haven't had a response. The slow response makes me feel cautious about their customer support.

Has anyone had experience with them? Recommend? Avoid?

I used a Mosley kit and had a great experience. Cam was very responsive when I reached out to him with questions. That was about 4 years ago

Likewise, Had a great experience with them. As an aside, I think those contact us pages only work 10% of the time. I’ve used those with multiple companies and my success rate in getting a response is virtually nil.

Perfect. Thanks

I also purchased a Sniper kit from Mosley. No issues. Highly recommend @FJ60Cam

Curious how you communicated with, Cam is it?
They don't show a phone number on their website and the texts to the number for text messages and the contact form has produced no response. It's been a week since I placed my order. The website stated the items were in stock, but there is no mention of it shipping. I was hoping to get the kit and work on it over the Labor Day weekend. Now I'm questioning whether their web site is functioning.
Did you just PM him on Mud?
