Fuel Manager/Filter: Service and Repair
Bleeding Air From Fuel Supply System
WARNING: The water/diesel fuel mixture is flammable, and could be hot. To help avoid personal injury and/or property damage, do not
touch the fuel coming from the drain hose and do not expose the fuel to open flames or sparks. Be sure you do not overfill the container. Heat
(such as from the engine) can cause the fuel to expand. If the container is too full, fuel could be forced out of the container. This could lead to a
fire and the risk of personal injury and/or vehicle damage.
