I have a 94 SLM Comp 2000, and over the past couple years it has started to leak, getting worse each year. I thunk it is leaking around the drive shaft, two years ago a friend tighened a nut on the shaft which helped the problem for a while but the leaking is getting worse. I did not what exactly he did at the time and am not sure what to do. I tried to tighten a nut with the boat out of the water and it seemed really tight, and I did not want to over tighten. Should this be done in the water? Also a friend said I might need to repack the seal with some teflon rope packing. Is this an easy procedure? Any help in this problem would be greatly appreciated.
