It doesn't sound like there is anything to fix - just an adjustment - if that. 4 drips a minute isn't going to hurt anything - and you have a bilge pump on. I adjusted mine recently and it is such an imprecise science - Whatever the drip rate it is when you adjust it, it might change in a few weeks anyway.
