[C320-list] Slow Leak From SeaWater Pump

[Joe Luciano]

Likely what is dripping is the pump seal.  They can be pressed out and replaced, but you have to remove the pump.  Or, you can replace the pump.  Just a matter of economics.

I have since replaced the impeller, the impeller cover, the seal washer that goes on the inside of the impeller, the O ring and the hose that goes from the raw water pump to the heat exchanger. I also used a silicone sealant around the O ring before tightening the impeller cover plate. It still drips. :|
