I removed my original 30 year old packing which was 3 rings of 8mm. I tried replacing with 3 rings of 8mm graphite but was near impossible to get the 3rd ring fully inserted in to the nut. (could not even see the threads.) After inserting each ring, i tightened the nut to push the packing to the back,but still no go. Would it be ok to use 6mm for the last ring or maybe 6mm altogether?
TIA.
