Diesel mechanics routinely use something like blue Permatex goop to seal the pipe threads. Supposedly teflon tape is a big no-no with diesel. Right - standard pipe threads, and this is the off-engine plumbing - fuel transfer between tanks, etc. Previously, I was using a teflon-based paste of some sort, but my supply is long gone and I no longer remember what it was called or where I got it. Hence my request for suggestions. Tom |
