I bought my 6415 used. It came with service records. At 1086 hours the number two injector started leaking and a cap for it was replaced under warranty. Hope tis helps.

how was the leak determined was it visable was there fuel in the oil or was it pulled and the crack found just wanting to know what to look for

I was not the owner when this happened. I did get the service records when I bought it used.

They state: customer says leaking fuel on engine.
"Tech steamed engine to find leak. Found #2 injector leaking at cap area. Replaced Injector cap. Recleaned. Tested"

Parts listed:
1 RE531438 kit $6.94
1 TY26101 brake/clutch ( I am guessing a spray brake cleaner) $4.94

Labor @ $69.00 per hour:

2 hours repair
.75 hours diagnose

Hope this helps. Leak must have been visable, Nothing about diesel in the oil, don't know if Injector was pulled.

I hope I have no need to worry, I'm having delivered on Monday, the new 6330 I bought, not a premium but pretty premium to me compared to my old 630 2 cylinder!! I'd get sick if an injector acted up real soon.

It had to be a hickup 10 hrs on tractor since then smooth as silk. must have been trash. I love this tractor it thinks it is 150hp It does so much more than it should. Ive been told it should not pull a 21ft disk with 20" blades. It does in c range with no problem it pulls 12' bog 30" blades dealer said it would not do that. 9" chisel with 32" teeth you cant pull that boy this tractor does i think you will be very happy. Pound for pound best tractor i have had.

That's quite a move up! I got a 6X15 series which is the economy version of the 6X20 series and its PREMIUM to the 2030 it will replace.

The tractors 125 Hp. But your ground is really dry and your disk looks light.
