Hi, My boat is new to me, but I do know the box was re packed with normal flax 3 years ago. This season it has been behaving strangely. One day it's not dripping at all when not running/docked, but the next it was dripping every 10 seconds. So, I got wrenches and set out to adjust. I turned it about 1/4 turn, in the right direction, and it started pouring in a continuous flow. I had to go a further two turns before getting it back to a reasonable drip rate, and I can see a good 2-3 mm of shiny shaft now exposed. I've run it at the dock to 1500 rpm for 10 mins, and it's now dripping 5/min running and doesn't get hot. Any ideas what has happened ? Should I be worried?
Thanks, Andrew
