1) New gasket/o-ring on fuel fill caps
2) Drain ALL gas from tank
3) Drain VST (might want to take it off and take a peek at the screen)
4) Replace on-board fuel water sep and empty engine-side filter
5) Refill tank with fresh fuel and Startron
6) Remove hose from engine-side filter and place in your jelly jar. Pump primer bulb to fill jar thus getting all water out.
Should be good to go.
