I have a seep in the pump shaft seal of my emergengy gear down pump almost
from the time hydraulic fluid was introduced into the system.  I wipe it
clean and wipe the floor as well about once a week.  Has anyone else had a
similar problem?  I can't imagine this will fly with an expensive interior
and carpet installed.  I'm curious to know if I'm the only one out here with
this problem.
Thanks,

ps: The shaft and top of the pump were wrapped with aluminum tape to prevent
sanding dust from fouling the chevron wiper seal but I took it off when the
fluid started dripping from the bottom of the pump...
