Car Forum / UK Car Forums / Car Maintenance (UK group) / April 2007Transit diesel water drain.
How do I unclip the sensor to drain the water trap on my fuel filter? It's a 2.5 litre, N reg diesel. The manual just says unclip but not how to do so. > How do I unclip the sensor to drain the water trap on my fuel filter? > It's a 2.5 litre, N reg diesel.

That seems to have done the trick. Now I just need to get rid of the stink of fuel. I can't see how I am going to enjoy fiddling with this thing. It seems to require a degree in contortionism. Got any picture sites on how to do stuff to Transits anyone? I couldn't find an Haynes Manual. >> > the multi plug is held on with a metal spring clip, you need to push >> > the [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > I can't see how I am going to enjoy fiddling with this thing.

Just ask what you want to know, as I've got plenty experience of working on them. >>> > the multi plug is held on with a metal spring clip, you need to push >>> > the [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > plenty > experience of working on them. Dodgy TIS manual on ebay. >>>> > the multi plug is held on with a metal spring clip, you need to push >>>> > the [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > Dodgy TIS manual on ebay. From memory, I don't think TIS covered the old transits, as TIS came about roughly the same time as the transit 2k. It certainly never covered Escort Vans, and they were made upto 2001. > > > the multi plug is held on with a metal spring clip, you need to push the > > > spring clip so the plug unclips [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Got any picture sites on how to do stuff to Transits anyone? I > couldn't find an Haynes Manual. Ditto. I found it rather fiddly to do but eventually found what you had to press for it to come off. So, got the connector off and unscrewed the drain tap, and... nothing! No water, fuel, anything came out. Does this indicate I have some sort of problem? I just screwed it back up and put the connector back on and ignored it.
