FUEL FILTER/WATER SEPARATOR
Diesel Fuel Conditioner Module (DFCM)
The vehicle is equipped with a diesel fuel conditioning module (DFCM)
located on the frame-rail under the driver-side floorboard near the
transmission
Water should be drained from the
module assembly whenever the
warning light comes on and the
message center directs you to drain
the water separator. This will occur when approximately 0.32 pints (150
ml) of water accumulates in the module. If water level is allowed to
exceed this level, the water may be passed through to the engine and
may cause fuel injection equipment damage.
Draining the DFCM
1. Stop the vehicle andshut offthe engine.
WARNING:The vehicle must be stopped with the engine off
when draining the DFCM. Fuel may ignite if the separator is
drained while the engine is running or vehicle is moving.
Note:Air will enter into the fuel system if the DFCM is drained while
the system is running. The engine will not operate properly if air enters
the system.
2. Locate the DFCM and place an appropriate container under the drain
port (see illustration).
