Hi, absolute beginner here.
Starting to work on my new-to-me 1988 BJ74 RHD turbo... I'm used to working on old motorcycles, not trucks, so this is me learning to wrench on engines bigger than 650cc.
The fuel-filter light came on and I wanted to address that today along with an oil change. Oil change was fine but the fuel filter release valve at the bottom didn't release much of anything. I undid it 2 1/2 turns as per the manual, nothing. Ending up taking it all the way out, still nothing. A drop or two of water came out but nothing significant warranting a tray.
Is this a sign that the indicator is misreading, or am I missing something?? I'm wary of driving it much before figuring this out to keep from causing any damage.
Helpful thoughts?
Cheers!
