Hey, Yobub, old post, but how did it go. I may have a leaking one which may need tending to this winter. Found the spare holders zipped tied to the bulkhead so they have been already used.Decided to stick with the Tides, but now the service advisor now says that they can't put a spare seal on because they can't get it to fit. He also said not to bother because they can never change them without pulling the shaft anyway.
I won't be at the boat until launch day so I can't verify.
Any of you diesel 400 DA guys have a spare Tides on your boat or know whether it should fit?
