    I’d put in fresh fresh packing. I buy mine at Napa.

    I’m pretty sure there is no nylon washer. I removed the high speed needle on my ’60 RD-22 (40hp) this morning and verified it has packing only. Check the diagram on Marineengine.com. It shows the packing and nothing else. However their part # is bogus therefore you may not be able to source it from them.

    How ’bout some anti-seize compound on the packing nut threads ?
