The engine will not operate properly if air enters the system. During refueling, it is possible for water-contaminated diesel fuel to be pumped into your tank. Your vehicle's fuel system is equipped with a fuel filter/water separator to remove water from the fuel. The water in fuel light will illuminate when the DFCM has a significant quantity of water in it. If the light illuminates when the engine is running, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible, shut off the engine, then drain the DFCM. Refer to Fuel filter/water separator in the Fuel and refueling chapter of this supplement for the drain procedure. Allowing water to stay in the system could result in extensive damage to, or failure of, the fuel injection system. 7 2013 Diesel (67l) Supplement, 1st Printing USA (fus)
