Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this shaft seal will fit my engine?
This seal is designed for Volvo Penta engines that use a 25mm (1") propeller shaft and a 42mm (1-3/4") shaft tube external diameter. Please verify these dimensions on your vessel and confirm the OEM part number is 828254 before ordering.
What are the signs of a failing shaft seal?
Common signs of failure include excessive water dripping or a steady stream of water entering the bilge from the shaft log area, a visible spray of water when the shaft is turning, or visible cracking/perishing of the rubber on the old seal.
What is the recommended maintenance for this seal?
The seal requires periodic lubrication. It is recommended to apply grease every 200 hours of operation or at least once a year. Regular inspection for wear or damage is also advised.
