fuel question

okay i got the 94 turbo idi, i found out i have water in the fuel now and i bought a new filter and some diesel kleen for the tank, but i know i got to water out of the tank, what problems will run in to on the changing the filter will i need to bleed all the injectors? i was also told the diesel kleen might also fix the nosie injector too.

If you fill the replacement fuel filter with diesel kleen, you should not have to bleed injectors. However use the Schrader valve (tire valve) on the filter header to purge any air while cranking for a start. Have a cloth handy to soak up the air/fuel mixture until fuel only is seen. If it starts and runs while cranking stop bleeding the filter........

The new ULSD fuel which just in the process of coming out/is out is making the older diesels running noisier. Mine does every time I don't use B5 biodiesel.
