During maintenance of a piston rod stuffing box on a large, slow speed diesel engine it is usual to measure the butt gaps between the sealing ring and scraper ring segments. What would be the effect of these gaps being too small?
If the gaps are too small they could close due to the radial wear of the rings before the next scheduled overhaul preventing the rings from contacting the piston rod and sealing it.
If the gaps were too small then no oil could pass up the piston rod to lubricate the sealing rings.
If the gaps are too small the rings could score the piston rod.
If the gaps are too small then the flow of scavenge air through the gland would be reduced and the gland would overheat.

Marine diesel engines are normally provided with automatic protection devices which operate in the event of abnormal conditions arising. Why would medium speed engines used for main propulsion normally only automatically slow down for certain abnormal conditions but automatically shut down for the same conditions when used to drive an alternator?
The gearbox and clutch of the propulsion system may be damaged if the engine suddenly stopped.
Sudden total loss of propulsive power may seriously endanger the vessel. This is a greater risk than engine damage.
Since the engine used for propulsion would usually be bigger the sudden stop would generate greater thermal stress which may damage the engine.
The vessel could continue to operate and manoeuvre without any electrical power at all as long as the main engine is still running.
