I had a drip less system consisting of a rubber bellows against a stainless r=
ing put in by the yard worked great for years but last season when I was lau=
nched it was leaking=20
Owner of the yard told me to use sand paper or a rag to clean the interface.=
It never happened for the rest of the season. =20
Then this year when I was launched I started the engine and this time I had s=
ignificant water pouring in from there again wiping the interface stopped th=
e problem. But to be honest I am nervous every time I go out
May be a maintenance problem but very disconcerting
