FUEL/WATER SEPARATOR –
DIESEL ENGINE
–If Equipped
Diesel fuel often contains small quantities of
water which can damage the engine if not filtered
out. The fuel/water separator traps this water and
prevents it from reaching the engine. The harmful
water deposits must be drained from the
separator canister during normal periodic service
and maintenance to keep the fuel filtration
system working effectively.
The fuel/water separator is located at the
forward right side of the engine beneath the rear
of the chassis.

Place an appropriate container beneath the
outlet and open the water release valve several
turns. Drain any water deposits from the canister
until clean diesel fuel flows from the valve. Close
