Yanmar diesel fuel injector leaking

The tractor has no power under load, and the cylinder closet to the seat is leaking - so i'm deducing that they probably have something to do with each other, but I'm not sure. I removed the hard lines to the injectors, and I think I may have loosened something that isn't supposed to be loose.

If you removed your injector lines, and then reattached them. You first off got air in the line and you will have to purge them. But, I believe that your injector gasket was probably the culprit and why it was leaking. It sounds like the injector was losing fuel pressure and the pump was unable the push enough fuel to all the cylinders when under load.

If it were me, I would go online to HoyteTractors.com they carry every part for your Yanmar tractor that you will ever need. They also have a tech department too. Since you already have air in your lines, you might as well replace the fuel filter and O-ring and injectors seals. You can also get a service manual from Hoyte for your specific tractor model. If your Yanmar (3000) is like mine, my fuel pump is on the "passenger side" of the tractor and it has a bleed valve on it. So after you replace your parts you can bleed the air out. They are very simple machines to work on. Just in case you didnt know, most Yanmar tractors are a direct cross to John Deere Tractor Models. Any John Deere tractor under 100hp is/was Mfg. by Yanmar for 30-40 yrs or so. Good Luck!!

SOURCE: Yanmar diesel engine model#3007D003 powering a 6x4 cuts off.

My thought is that it is electrical, since it will not crank. I assume you mean that it will not turn over when you turn the key. I am not certain, but I think that if you have an electrical problem it may shut off the fuel supply as well. There is probably an electrical fuel stop on that machine. Since there is no spark plugs or electrical system to make the engine run, by shorting out the electrical system it will not stop the engine.

SOURCE: I have a John Deere 2020 diesel. I can't get the fuel pump off

You need to remove the nut under the cover in front of the pump and then borrow a tool from a j.d dealership to pull the coupler off the pump,you may need the dealer to do this because they have a no lend pollicy for their special tools.Hope this helps.

My Yanmar diesel tractor ran out diesel. How to purge air from lines

Follow fuel line to where it enters the injector pump. There will be a bleed screw (bolt) on the injector pump housing near where the fuel line enters the pump. You need only to barely loosen the bleed screw for the low pressure fuel pump to bleed fuel around the seat of the bleed screw. The idea is to allow air to escape with minimal fuel.

Crank engine and observe fuel bleeding from around bleed screw (may take several seconds)... engine should catch and run although it may be erratic. Once running, you tighten/loosen bleed screw until rpms come up and settle into normal operation.

If it runs but seems to not reach proper rpm, it may be necessary to bleed the individual injector(s).

If you don't get fuel at bleed screw then likely low pressure pump is not moving fuel from tank. Make sure you have enough fuel in tank so fuel level is higher than the low pressure pump.

I have a yanmar diesel tractor ym147 it will start but it goes wide open no matter what you do with throttle fuel injection pump is good what else could cause this? Injector maybe?

diesel engine always start in the full fuel position and the governor moves the rack back to idle
that indicates a stuck or broken governor in the pump so have a diesel specialist shop check it or and repair it as the pump has to be bench calibrated

My john deere 1070 loads up under a load and will stall. I changed fuel filter which was loaded with "gunk" and it ran ok for a while then is doing it again.

I am not sure what you are calling gunk but if this gunk is black it is engine oil. The tractor and the engine was built by Yanmar. The injection pump is lubricated with oil pressure from the engine. The seals in the pump will leak and engine oil will get in the fuel system and contaminate the diesel fuel and plug the fuel. Seals will have to be replaced in the injection pump to correct the gunk.

The 2520 has a loss of power in high gear under a load

that should have the yanmar in her, could be a few things, first off i check or change fuel filter, could also be a clogged injecter or a injector not working, but fuel problem is my first guess is filter is old and block, also a good time to drain and remove any water as well

My john deere 990 wont start. it's not getting diesel to the engine

Check there is adequate fuel to supply engine. Check there is no damage to fuel lines and that the fuel filter is not plugged. Yours is a Yanmar diesel engine withe an autobleed feature which is supposed to bleed the air out of the system automatically. It may incorporate an electric fuel pump also, but some don't. You can prime the fuel system to the injection pump with the manual lift pump if it is equipped with it. After establishing fuel to the injection pump, loosen the nuts that hold the fuel lines onto the injectors approximately1 1/2 turns. Turn the engine over until you see fuel coming from the injector nuts. Tighten the nuts to 24 inch/lbs of torque, start the engine and run at 1/3 throttle untill it runs smooth.
