Hi Brien, Have to share this. I don't know what the previous owner used in my 1990 shaft seal. It does leak slightly when I first launch and when running, but not after the engine stops. I've owned the boat fifteen years since 2002 and never tightened the packing. No, I won't take it apart.
I guess it is one of the newer packing materials. > On February 16, 2018 at 9:05 PM Brien Sadler via CnC-List > <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > > > > Has anyone changed to a PSS dripless stuffing box?
