Pictures? Sure I got pictures.
I mounted the auto dump filter on the radiator shroud to get it away from the vibrations. I left the check valve mounted to the air compressor, made a bracket out of aluminum angle, then ran the drain line down through the gap in the middle where the air cylinder is. If you look there you can see a 3" or 4" gap in the weatherstripping.
The float in the filter was bouncing up and down from the compressor vibrations and causing it to blow puffs of air out through the drain. That caused the compressor to run 15 minutes or longer. Once I moved it is running again for 3-5 minutes each cycle.
