In a prior post about fogging a MPI engine it was said that a new fuel filter/water separator should be used so that if water is found it wont rust in the filter. Also if any, or too much, water was found that that would be the time to get it out of the tank before it caused problems.
My question is: After pulling the old filter (full of fuel) how do you determine if there is water present and, if so, how much?
And, as long as we are talking about it, if it is found to be excessive then what is the procedure to rid the tank of water?
I don't have a fuel problem, just want to make sure I don't get one. The only preventive measures I take is to add stabilizer at the end of the season and try to keep the tank full the rest of the time - not an easy task I might add.
