There is a drain on the bottom of the bowl. Put something under it to catch the water. Drain it until fuel comes out. Turn the key so that the fuel pump comes on but don't start it. When the bowl is full you can start. If for some reason you don't keep a full tank of fuel condensation can form. If this happens and you run the tank low the water mixed with fuel will work it's way through the system.

alot of these are false alarms. I have had it go on a couple times. I shut the truck off - turn it back on and it never goes on. Never had any problems with acutaly h20 in the fuel. No i get my diesel from the same place everytime and never have a prob.
