You should drain water from the
module assembly whenever the
warning light illuminates or a
message appears in the information
display advising you to drain the water
separator. This occurs when approximately
6.76 fl oz (200 ml) of water accumulates
in the module. If you allow the water level to exceed this level, the water may pass
through to the engine and may cause fuel
injection equipment damage.

Removal 1. For 2017 models, disconnect the fuel
line quick connect coupling from the in
tank fuel pump. For 2018 models and
later, skip this step but insure that the
fuel filler cap is closed before draining
the filter. Failure to close the fill cap
results in the siphoning of the entire
fuel tank contents when you open the
drain screw.
2. Locate your filter.
