The Allen screw that secures the lower Driveshaft bearing located by the water pickup holes was loose and leaking gear oil. when i tried to tighten it, it went in so far that more gear oil began to leak.what am I doing wrong? Is there a torque spec or does it float? How do I know the bearing is in place? Just resealed the lower unit and replaced water pump but didn't have any of this apart. Thanks!!:confused:
