Good Morning All,
I have a 93' 330 DA that I'd like to repack the stuffing boxes on. Ok, check that. They NEED repacked. :smt089 She's got twin big blocks and a genny. Here's the problem... I can't see how a normal sized human could possibly fit down in the ER to accomplish this. I got a quote for $2K from a mechanic to pull the engines and replace both stuffing boxes with dripless, but I'd rather just repack them myself and save the cash for about a billion other things I'd rather spend it on for the boat.
Any thoughts? Anyone successfully accomplish this and live to tell the tale? :huh:
