2005 X Fuel Filter
OK, my water in fuellight just started coming on whenever I make left turns so I dive underneath to the lower fuel filter to drain it, as I used to with my 2004 F350, only to find that here is no drain on the filter anymore.
Owners manual says there is, like my 350 did, but the filter is different.
Any ideas what I am supposed to do now?

The '05 was supposed to get an updated HFCM, with a drain *lever*... which would be heavenly... but even though it was shown in the '05 manual that, way, nobody has seen one on a pickup truck yet. Is this where they all went, to the Excursion part of the assembly line? If that's the case, there should be a lever about where the hex key plug used to be, with a nipple to put a hose on below it. Let me see if I can dig up a picture.

Mine is a solid unit, no plug, no lever, just a solid housing.

I'm not insulted and I am looking at the right part.
I had a 2004 F350 before this and I know where the part is and what it does.
I went to the dealer and had them look at it. The service writer looked at it, shruged his shoulders and asked if I could make an appointment to leave the truck for a while, whatever that means.
