very easy to drain the water out, right under the driver seat next to the frame, you're going to see the fuel filter housing, your going to get a empty plastic water bottle & put the tip of the fuel filter housing into the plastic bottle, then you turn the lever & you'll see water & diesel leak out, after about 30 seconds, close the lever. This must be done every month or you can damage your injectors

The radiator issues were with the JOB 1{those were the ones built before 7/2007)

I have a job 1 built June 2007. 29,000 miles and coming on 4 years of driving it, still have the original radiator with no leaks. May be the only solid one, but my point is that all job 1's don't leak.

Good luck with the pursuit! Enjoy it when you get it!
