Hi;
I'm getting quite a bit of oil being flung around the shaft coupling. Looks like the coupling/rear seal need replacement.
I've watched Don's video and read a few of the threads here.
Questions:
I have a dripless stuffing box. Are there any complications to move the shaft aft after it's disconnected?
How successful is using a pipe wrench to hold the coupling while getting the nut off? Do I need the special tool?
Will the engine/shaft need alignment when I'm done? I don't have any particualr issues right now.
I have an electric wrench that has pretty good torque. I have very poor access to the back, I can only get one arm in... arggh.
