      make sure that your clamp on the wire meter is dc readable most are ac.

        it might help if you had a volt ohm meter with a 10 amp or so dc scale on it,go inline with the electrical system with the key off to see if the is a drain from the battery then turn the key on but do not engage the start circuit to see how much drain is there ,there might be some to run dash gauges but the amps would be low.but for the battery to be drained with it sitting with the key off I suspect that you will see it with the key off.

          I do not know if it is available to you but farm fuel that is diesel that is dyed red might help to see if there is a mixing of fuel and injectior oil going on.

            the last 2 words in the post before are very important the diesel bugs can not exist without water so no water no bugs,use see thru bowls on bulk diesel tanks so you can see if water is present,if you do not have a see thru filter system get in the habit of using the petcock to drain off a sample for inspection.

                I stand corrected it has been a couple of years since I seen that can and I mistakenly thought that I remembered seeing ppg as the parent company of valspar.oops

                  I would stay away from a water based polyurathane paint on liner if you do it yourself ,I did not have good luck with it and it was a valspar(ppg) product to.

                    I know they use them on logging skidders all 4 wheels,but I do not think I have ever seen good tires on a skidder unless it is new on the lot for sale,I think the key to not tearing up a tire is to make sure you get a correct fit with the chain.

                      you might want to look just to see,make sure the differential pedal is up,the neighbors came over saying his tractor did not turn very well he had used the lock and the pedal did not return. but this most likely not your issue.

                        I just fixed a couple months ago a john deere 655 (yanmar) I think that was the model with the same set up on the valve .He had overheated the engine and I think that made those o rings brittle so they started weeping .In the bottom of the hole that those valves came from there should be a copper compression sealing washer,that I think is the main seal to prevent leaks the o ring must take care of a lower pressure flow. replace all with the sealing parts with new ones replacing just the o rings might not take care of the leak,I know this by trying not to replace the copper sealing washers,I would try a diesel injector shop for the parts if they are not on a parts breakdown you have. lube the o ring with just diesel.
