    I have had an issue with that one as well. I tightened mine once and it was hard to get a wrench on. I would get some PB blaster and soak it for a long while. Afterward try to get a wrench on it -- very tight quarters -- and repack. I was thinking about buying a large wrench and cutting the handle down to get to mine. That is my next project... have to repack both.
