Fuel Filter / Water Separator

The fuel filter/water separator is located under the seat on the left side of the vehicle, between the engine and fuel tank.
Inspect the separator daily for leaks. Drain water and replace the separator at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart. Service the separator more frequently if the vehicle is operated with inferior fuel.
caution
Both fuel and water will drain from the separator during the following procedure. Use caution and observe all fuel safety precautions when handling fuel.
  1. Remove the seat. Disconnect the battery.
  2. Place an appropriate container under the fuel filter drain to catch fluids (water and fuel).
  3. Slightly loosen the bleed screw to relieve fuel pressure in the filter. Do not tighten the screw at this time.
  4. Reach under the fuel filter and slightly loosen the drain valve until the fluids drain from the drain hole. Do not completely unscrew the drain valve.
  5. When fluids stop draining from the valve, tighten the valve firmly (by hand only).
  6. Reconnect the battery.
