Drain a small amount into a container and check it for water. If water is persent it will look like bubbles in the container. As far as where it comes from all diesel fuel has a small amount of water suspended in its molecules. With temperature changes due to engine heat or atmospheric changes the water can seperate and condense inside the fuel tank and then pass to the filter. Also poor fuel handling can introduce water into the system. Check your service manual for the proper procedure to eleminate air in the system after a filter service so your injection pump doesnt airlock.</p></blockquote><p></p>
