Pump Still Leaking

Pool Equipment

i have replaced the impellar and shaft seal  but the water still comes out the bottom of the pump  did i miss something

the only thing different is the shaft seal was a little short i can see a gap between the impellar and shaft seal??

We’d be glad to assist you. What is the make and model of the pump? Is it leaking between the motor and seal plate or is it leaking between the seal plate and front housing?

hayward super spa pump 3500 series      from the gap in the bottom of the plate seal and housing

i have replaced the housing and gasket    and then the impellar and shaft seal

When you removed the old shaft seal, was there a metal piece left behind (picture below). That metal piece should have been removed.

i put the old impellar back on  and i think the new one does’t have enough threads to go on the shaft.  so far no leaks

thanks

I have used your video to change my shaft seal.  After a day, it is leaking out the bottom again.  I removed the entire old seal and replaced with the new seal.  Seems to be leaking between the motor and seal plate out the bottom.
