No. Also inspect the sleeve or sump, O-ring groove, sealing faces, retaining hardware, and threads for cracks, debris, scale, or misalignment.

A:
Shut off power and water, relieve pressure, remove grit from the groove, seat the O-ring without twisting, and tighten retaining hardware evenly as directed.
