So before I can fix the shaft seal that might be leaking and after the tons of other stuff i've done already and the fact that the pool hasn't been run in 6 days and counting now. The knob on the band assembly gets stripped out!! kept turning and turning so I grabbed a pair of pliers to try to pull it off and that didn't work. What another way to remove it or should I just replace the pump already.
