Can anyone point me in the direction of where to find instructions on how to replace the filter in the fuel water separator?I must have read it on here a dozen times, but I can't find the threat when I search. Thanks a lot.

1. Unplug WIF sensor, fuel temp sensor and heater (both on filter head)

2. Grab filter with both hands (one hand if your a man!)

3. TWIST REALLY HARD! Clockwise, viewed from top of filter.
Note: If you have to use a filter wrench or other tool FOR GODS SAKE,
MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO WITNESSES AND NEVER EVER ADMIT TO IT!!!

I don't believe there is a seperate fuel water seperator. Its part of the fuel filter.

The instructions for changing the fuel filter are the last message in this thread

Don't get too aggressive when priming the fuel system. It is possible to overpressure and create a leak where there was none...

Great, thanks for the great advice. The service schedule says 25k for the fuel filter. I've only got 13k on mine, so I never bought them. I ordered a couple and am now waiting for them to arrive - hopefully can do this over the weekend.
