My B6000 seems to have an oil leak at every gasket as identified by the dust/oil build-up. The worst is at the tiller. I don't think I'm losing any amount of oil, but none-the-less it is always dirty. Is this common for this tractor? I know that chasing/fixing oil leaks is a full time job with some tractors and you never get ahead - you just learn to live with them. Is the B6000 one such beast?

Also, my clutch engages fairly "harshly". In some of the higher gears, I lift the wheels off the ground even when I'm trying to release it slowly. Is this normal for this tractor? If it isn't normal, is this easy to adjust?

Thank you,
Chris
