What's in my fuel! This doesn't look good!

What happens here

The presenter reinstalls the fully assembled and repaired fuel pump and new filter system back onto the truck's auxiliary fuel tank. He connects all hoses and electrical wiring. He then activates the pump, demonstrating its restored functionality and the effectiveness of the new Goldenrod pre-filter. He shows how the clear bowl of the pre-filter visibly separates water from the diesel fuel, collecting water at the bottom. He drains the accumulated water from the pre-filter, emphasizing its role in protecting the engine from fuel contamination.

Goal: This final step involves putting the repaired pump and new filters back on the truck, testing the system, and demonstrating the water separation function of the pre-filter.
