Drain seperator

OK, water in fuel light came on again, I drain it this past weekend after doing that, SO i called the dealer to see where to drain this. SO he tells me its on the frame rail. IS this right? I did drain it into a bowl, no water that i noticed was in there, Ok so now i'm down to a 1/4 tank comes on again. Now what? drain again or do i change out filters, I notice there is on next to the drain. Is that a fuel fliter that right there & one on top next to the oil filter. And i guess i better hit the dealer up for those also, and how much of a PIA is this to change???

here is a write up on how to change the fuel filters. Also maybe you could take the cover off the water seperator and clean it out. Maybe the WIF sensor is bad?

I noticed on the write up where you said to drain that seperator, about 16 ozs. I did't get but a few ozs to come out and i left it open for a good while. I guess i better just change out my filters to be safe. seems like, both times i'm below a 1/4 tank of fuel
