Water in fuel light

[DChatfield]

My water in fuel light keeps coming on approx every 100 miles and as my tank gets toward empty it comes on about every 10 miles. I drain the water fuel separator and that clears it up for a while. Do I need to drain the tank and if so does it need to be removed from the truck to do so?

Get your self a clear plastic bottle with a cap and collect the fuel/water you drain out.

Once you get your water issue resolved you'll need to get your filter changed out.



I suggest you do this: Park truck and let it sit for awhile so things settle in the tank and water settles out. Put a 2-liter bottle over the end of your drain hose then open the drain valve. Hop in your rig and bump the starter (do not start engine). The transfer pump will run for 20 seconds or so and quite a bit of fuel will pump into the bottle.



Check the bottle for water, keep repeating this until the water is gone. Then I would replace your fuel filter, and be sure to inform the station where you filled up of the problem.
