Fuel Water Separator
Water and dirt that gets into fuel settles into the water
separator. (Figure 5-18) As it collects, a red oat rises.
When the oat reaches the line on the separator, an
error code will appear on the PV480 digital display. It is
important to drain it immediately.
If you run out of fuel, it is important
to pump the water separator to prime fuel injection
lines. Failure to do so can adversely affect
performance.
To drain the water separator:
1. Pull retainer clip from plug to disconnect the
harness.
2. Unplug the harness, then unscrew the plug.
3. Drain and reinsert components.
