Draining Fuel/Water Separator Filter

The fuel filter/water separator filter housing is located

above the rear axle next to the fuel tank. The best access

to this water drain valve is from under the vehicle.

CAUTION!

Do not drain the fuel/water separator filters when

the engine is running.

Diesel fuel will damage blacktop paving surfaces.

Drain the filters into an appropriate container.

If water is detected in the water separator while the

engine is running, or while the ignition switch is in the

ON position, the “Water In Fuel Indicator Light” will

illuminate and an audible chime will be heard. At this

point you should stop the engine and drain the water

from the filter housing.
