Malibu Boat Shaft Seal Leaking. Can be done by hand, just make sure it does not get hot, that would be too tight. I have a 2002 malibu vlx, the prop shaft seal is leaking water into the hull and wondered if anyone had changed one? Hi, i recently had the real gear box seal replaced and a month or two later the shaft seal has started leaking while under way. Properly maintained, replacements are not common, and the manufacturers report more than 20,000 to 30,000 hours of use on a single carbon seal in commercial applications. The water drip is to keep the seal and. No vibration or loss of power. After an adjustment, make sure you check the shaft temperature afterwards. When i purchased this boat it had a leaking dripless seal around the prop shaft. Seemed like it wouldn't be too. Upgrading from a traditional stuffing box, or shaft seal, to a more modern dripless shaft seal will. After looking around i decided to go with the new style oj flex gland. Seal has been leaking for a bit this summer about 3gals/hr and auto bilge runs every 25mins. Loss of water flow to the seal is the number one cause of failures, followed by particulates getting caught between the seal faces.
