Looking over the Derv filter on the van the other day, I noticed a screwdriver slot down the right side. It looked like a bleed screw and what looked like a drain stub just below it.
Is this a bleed screw for if water is present in the filter? If so do you just open it with the engine running to let the positive pressure push the water out? and assuming the water in fuel warning light came on, is examiner intervention needed afterwards?
All this would be a lot clearer if I had the filter off, but its not due for a long time. Just occured to me though, if its a water drain and the light came on, all it would need would be a long handled screwdriver.........
