Diesel Talk
First off, I am Justin. I live in the British Virgin Islands. The diveshop I work for has 2 Newton Dive boats. I have no formal training in diesel repair but I have learned all I can on the job. One of my boats now has a problem that I just have not seen before.

Engine: John Deere 6068sfm50
Age: 4 years

I have a fuel leak that seems to be coming from around the injectors (it smells like diesel). At the same time it looks like coolant (green). I have tightened everything. But, the leak does not stop and only seems to be happening while underway.

I just thought now that I should check fuel pressure and see how high it is. Ill get back to this post when that is done.

Any suggestions of what to look for next is strongly appreciated.

Thanks,
Justin

Probably the injector tube rotton and leaking coolant and fuel out the top around the injector. Replace injector tubes
