Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a 1978 Pearson 31 with an atomic 4. I just replaced the impeller since I did not know what kind of condition the current one was in and there was also a small leak on the impeller housing gasket. After replacing the impeller that leak is gone, but I now have a leak behind the impeller housing. I also need to add that when I pulled the impeller the shaft came out as well. Everything seemed to go back together fine. The leak also seems to occur in small spurts. A few drops at a time. Any advice as to next steps?
Thanks
Mark
