[QUOTE="mekabajo, post: 121353, member: 19041"] Gravity fed, water is heavier than diesel and will settle in the bottom of the fuel separator filter, The water will drain out first when you remove the plug from the bottom. Once water is out it will continue to drain the lighter fluid (diesel) from your fuel line if you leave the plug out, it will not stop draining until there is no fluid in the fuel separator filter. Just put the plug back on after you think all the water is out, all water should drain out in less than a minute, not hours. Leaving the plug out for the hour is just wasting diesel. The fuel separator filter gets refilled when you try to start the engine as the fuel pump starts the flow of fuel to the engine. [/QUOTE]
