Leaking Steering Pump

[chuckbullett@gmail.com]

My Flybrige steering pump is leaking from somewhere... this developed out of no where i.e. It hasn’t been disturbed... but it surely is now.mimhave tried tightening the fittings but that hasn’t helped.It still seems to work fine... we are running the standard 1978 Hynautic steering system. If I pull the pump... what am I looking for? Do I need to replace the seals?ThankChuck on Chartmaker

Chuck see if you can tell if the leak is from the shaft, if it is there is a seal inside the pump on that shaft, not to hard to replace, lots of mechanics know how to do it. John
