2007 Dodge 2500 Water Fuel Separater Question

Sadly not as often as I should.
Drain until there is no more water.
Injector failure.
Do you have the updated fuel filter canister or the original one?

Every couple thousand miles on my 04.5 (when I remember) Change with every second oil change
(about 10-12K miles)
I went too long the last time,the lite went on and draining would not turn it off.Two bottles of HEET did the trick,changed filters at the next stop,along with an early oil change.

When I first bought my '07 I use to check it after every tank of fuel......never found any water.

After about 6 mos. of checking.....I quit

I change fuel filter every 2nd oil change and have never found/seen any evidence of water.

I go thru a lot of fuel.....travel FT and get fuel from all kinds of service stations from all different sources.

I too have never found any water. I did have the WIF light come on once after a heavy storm, but light went out after a couple of miles so it was probably just some moisture on the sensor.

I used to check it but never in the eleven years I've had my truck have I found any water in it.
So I don't bother with it anymore.

Newer trucks are more sensitive to dirt and water than the old trucks. My 98 Dodge has never shown any water. I change the filter after 10,000 miles. I am sure that this would not be good for a new truck with all the yew bells and whistles in their engines.

Never found any in my 24K mile 2012 Ram 6.7

Same here
Little hint though, a garden hose section of about 12" will drain it out directly into a Mason jar without getting all over your front diff :B

Rick,
Sounds like a personal problem... :B

LMAO....

RAM still installs a short vinyl tube on there. Drips fuel all over the front cross member. There isn't much room down there on 2013 3500's or 2014 and up RAMs. I actually just ripped off the factory hose (just slipped right off) went to home depot and put a 2 foot section on there along with a velcro strap so I can tuck it up and keep the tube clean and then bring it down when performing maintenance and checking for water. According to my owner's manual, says that it should be checked monthly.
