I had a leak at the rear seal, had a shop replace the seal.* No leaks for a short time, then leak started again.* The orig. leak was*by the*seal and flang coupler shaft.**The new leak isn't*there; I had a hard time finding where it was comming from.* Finally found it was leaking at the inside of the flang shaft where the nut is, flowing thru the inside of the flang shaft and prop/coupler shaft, then out of the Federal flexable coupling.* My question, is there a seal or something behind the nut? How can it be leaking around the nut?* I'm waiting for some*advice before I try taking the nut off or going any*deeper into it.*
