Waterlogged Nightmare: How NOT To Repack Your Stuffing Box | SV Ramble On

Every time we run the motor our bilge pump runs more than usual for a few days afterwards.

We used Gore GFO shaft packing material we bought on Amazon. This project didn't go quite as planned as you'll see. https://svrambleon.com   / svrambleon     / sv_rambleon   Opening Music: Jimmy Fontanez/Media Right Productions - Feel The Funk
