[Vwdiesel] '84 Quantum TD: water drains

[Andrew Buc]

So I was driving to meet my car pool this morning, and the glow plug
light start flashing intermittently. A couple flashes, a couple minutes,
a couple more flashes. Fortunately I was pretty close to where I meet my
car pool.

While waiting for the other members to show up (another guy drives the
rest of the way to work), I looked in the owner's handbook. I knew about
the water drain on the fuel filter, but according to the handbook,
there's another drain under the right rear of the car. That was as
specific as the handbook got. Anyone have a more precise location? I
didn't really have time to look for it, and it was dark.

I get the impression that I really shouldn't keep driving the car until
the water is drained. If I can't get the water drained tonight, I can
ride the bus home and come back in my other car, but I hope it doesn't
come to that. I carry a spare fuel filter--should I install it, or is it
enough to drain the existing one? Thanks.
