Default Diesel-resistant gasket sealant

What's your favorite diesel-resistant gasket sealant? This is for the
nitrile gasket on a clean-out port on the top of a small diesel fuel tank. I
wouldn't mind something that worked well for pipe threads, too.

Thanks,
Tom Dacon

Most common replacement for nitrile/BUNA/Neoprene is EPDM or
EthylenePropyleneDiamineMonomer .... if you cant find EPDM then plain
EthylenePropylene (EPR) will do.

For threaded fittings get the LokTite catalog as they have just about
every sealant that you will ever want :-)

MOST threaded fittings don't use a gasket, so your answer is a non-sequitor.

Possible you need remedial reading lessons as the original poster
wrote ". I

Tom,
Why do you think it needs a sealant in addition to the gasket.
If you are having a distinct problem with the assembly,
there may be some other issue here.
