My Super 55 gas is leaking quite a bit of oil from behind the dash, at the compression fitting that seats into the oil gauge. I have plugged it off at the filter to isolate the problem, but I dont see how I can fit my hand and a wrench in that 'hand hole' to work on it, to either tighten or remove.

-What parts do you guys like to remove to get a good access to the gauges etc.
-Has this happened to your tractor before? Do you think it could be a symptom to some other larger problem, like super high oil pressure or something? I figure that the dipstick and crankcase breathers would be spewing too, if that were the case. I am a novice, so thanks for the help. My manuals dont seem to help me here.

Remove the battery and you can reach through the
hole above where the battery sat. More room.

It can be tight getting in there.The line comeing from the engine is real small and there's lots of vibration.Plus the line often gets pulled or rough treatment. So the line is often a problem area,the ferral cracks or the line cracks and breaks.
