Larry. I did not proof read my last post. What I was trying to say it the new seal will make it leak "worse". A veritical scratch needs a rod. I have had customers damage the rod and I put a seal in when it really starts pouring out, but it is temporary. I usually file and emery cloth the scrath so it does not stick up above the surface of the chrome.
