What cools the drip less seal is a nippel near the drip less seal attached to the shaft tube , there should be a small hose branched of your water discharge of your exhaust line that feeds water to this nippel thus cooling and lubricating your drip less seal.You need to burp your seal buy squeezing it to brake the air lock.Marengo B 49

Thanks for the tip. I will try that but I just had a bottom job
last month and I saw them clean some of the thru hulls. I think I
could close the thru hull and take off the hose and check out both
the shaft end and the hose for blockage. If water comes in when I
open the thru hull then that probably is not my problem. Has
anyone suggested putting grease on the shaft under the seal?

It is by sight. I plan on closing it and removing it form seal and then opening it to see the waterflow. Here is what the manual says. I am not sure how to grease it thought
Maintenance
The rubber stuffing box offers a
low maintenance solution and yet
offers a long life span when handled
properly. Apply grease every
200 running hours or once a year
and ventilate the seal after launching
the boat for many years faultless
function.

I did burp it several times and took the boat out for a short
run, It still squealed but not as bad and this time the shaft was
not warm to touch.

I cannot find this via Google. Is the name correct?

No dripping at all. When I squeeze the shaft a little water
squirts out.
But it still made the groaning sound when we took her out
yesterday, It never did that before,

It was pink and clear. Where could I get an engine stethascope?
Thanks. I have a bigger problem. I tried to remove the hose
running from the thru hull to the cutlass bearing to see if I was
getting good water flow and snapped off the brass fitting at the
cutlass bearing. The thru hull was closed and I got a steady
stream of water from the propeller end of the cutlass bearing so
water flow was obviously not my problem.
Regards bungee
I tried putting her in reverse. That did not stop the shaft
from spinning or the noise. I have a mechanic coming today.
