What is the consensus on the thread tape versus thread sealants for fuel filter fittings and the like
I think the theory is you should not use Teflon tape to seal fuel fittings because some of it might get into the fuel system and block something...............
I'm using Permatex w PTFE.
The Permatex product does not work with propane, even though it does not mention this fact on the label. Had to redo all the propane connections with tape. Annoying.
There is also yellow teflon tape which is thicker and fuel rated.
