water seperator
I have 11000 miles on my 07 6.0l and have never had the water seperator drained. I have no warning lights to tell me that I have a problem. Should I be concerned I was going to get it done on its 15000 mile fuel filter change out.

I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're using good, fresh fuel and the light hasn't come on there shouldn't be any problem. I drain the HFCM and change both filters every 15, 000 miles. I use an additive (Stanadyne) in every tank of fuel and when I drain the HFCM I drain it into a clear bottle and have never seen any water in the fuel.
If you'd feel better about it, drain and change the filters now. Take a good look at the fuel you drain and the condition of the filters. That should give you a good idea of how you're doing.
