Lesson learned over the road. If you see a transport unloading go to a different station. Most of the station tanks have the pickup installed above the bottom and this allows water to accumulate. This water is stirred up when fuel is added to the tank. Some stations are more diligent in checking for water in their tanks. Of course, the transport could have unloaded and left five minutes before you arrived.

I think the filter is doing a good job right now getting the water out. If I have to, I will drain the fuel tank, but for now I am just driving it to burn all the fuel. It's running real good so I don't think it has THAT much water in it.
