What causes a series 60 engine to leak?
In order to lower NOx emissions, later Series 60 engines come equipped with an EGR. This system is often complained about as the cause of engine issues. This is particularly true of the EGR cooler. If you’re having a problem with your EGR cooler, you might notice an exhaust leak, especially white exhaust. This can indicate a coolant leak.

1200-1300, you should have 30-45 psi 1800-2100, you should have 65-80 psi If the fuel pressure is high, I would suspect a plugged fuel filters or faulty fuel pressure regulator. If the guage is really bouncy, and unstable, especially under boost, then compression could be leaking past the injector o-rings.
