Water Separator?

Anyone give me some help locating the drain and how to remove the water from the fuel filter? Do all have this?...I don't see any pitcock or anything...there appears to be a plate of the bottom that I assume needs to be removed. It also has a electrical wwire connected. Do I just spin off the filter? This is the 7.3L with the Banks Turbo...any advise would be nice Chiltons is no help...thanks

On the bottom of the fuel filter/water seperator their should be a rubber hose and it goes to the bottom of the filter their is a round thing you turn on the filter to get the water out. Turn (i think) counter-clockwise to drain. Hope this helps.
