ahoy

took her out last night and shes acting kinda naughty...carb. needs some adjustments. she idles kinda rough...added one can of seafoam, fresh take of gas.

muffler is still cracked...
needs new fuel filter...

on to the main question:

taking on some (IMO ALOT) of water...bilge runs alot...wondering if it would be the Prop Shaft seal?
anyone know how often these need to be replaced and how much it costs to do? (1992 Comp w/ 351 PCM)

shouldn't be anything coming in on rub rail per prior thread, its got good bead of silicon underneath.

Any help or suggestions are always welcome!
Thanks

This should answer your question... I just searched 'stuffing box' in this forum, that's the name of the prop shaft seal.
