Fuel lines for FP gauge

[Big P]

Do you need to put any type of sealant on the threads for the fp gauge? I ordered a tapped banjo bolt and a rubber fuel line from Geno's and was wondering if the tapered fitings on the hose need sealant. I was under the immpression that diesel is pretty tough on teflon tape, and I'm not sure of what else to use.

A mechanic at a big rig shop gave me a tube of Permatex thread sealer. He said it works really well.



I think RBatelle mentioned another industrial sealer, but I couldn't find the post.

Yep the Permatex works very well.
