if you plan to replace the gutter nails with screws then possibly you can make blocks out of pt lumber to make your gutters stand proud so the water drip into the gutter than behind them,it is hard to call without pics

It looks like my quick, cheap option is to buy a roll of flashing, trim the width and screw it onto the drip edge and fascia, it will go under the drip and over the gutter so that the rain will reach the gutter rather than behind it. If anyone foresees a problem with this method please share. I did confirm the problem was as I thought by taking hose to the roof and watching it pour around drip edge behind gutter. BTW, I had not clarified as I didnt realize til I rechecked, this is additionally a problem area as the roof is not shingled but a flat asphalt roof section, so the roof edge does not really overhang much but enough to go over the very tightly attached underside drip. It would be more work/ damage risk for me to replace drip or gutter. Also, I considered adding more brackets or replacing the spikes with gutter screws but I cant see how that would really make diff as the slope is just fine so its not a sag but rather the back edge of gutter is not plumb to the fascia.
