[Public-list] Sherwood water pump

[Bill Blevins]

My water pump has a leak just after it mounts to the engine. It is a 
Sherwood? pump on a 11hp Universal 5411 diesel. There appear to be two 
holes on opposite sides of the shaft near the base (behind the 
impeller). The way the pump is mounted, one is nearly on the top and one 
is down. I get a near constant drip when the engine is running and water 
streams out for a few minutes after I shut it down. I'm thinking I'm 
missing some sort of screw that is supposed to be in that hole? I have 
never seen water coming out here before. I forgot to take a picture but 
thought maybe one of you would know the two little holes I'm talking 
about have have a suggestion. I checked the impeller last night and it 
was still looking new. I replaced that mid-year last year.
