Today I found fuel in my heater puck connector and promptly ordered a Racor 245R122.

But I can't find any discussion of how to connect to the WIF indicator in the Jeep.

EurekaBoy disconnected his when he put in the CAT filter and doesn't talk about it when he switched to the Racor.

Ideas?

The CAT 2 filter doesn't have a water seperator/drain in it so there's no place to plug it in. I don't know if the Racor does or not. I remember a thread a while back were it was asked if anyone had actually seen the WIF light come on and no one had. I change my often enough that I don't really worry about water building up in it. Just my 2 cents.

The Racor can be ordered with a WIF sensor/connector - it also has the glass bowl so that you can see water seperating out.
