Re: Best fuel line thread sealant?

It may not be called for in normal circumstances, but using teflon tape can be done safely without fear of pieces getting into the carb. First of all, you start winding it around the threads at the carb end so it is only on threads, not in the seat area. You wind it in same direction as threads and nothing could possibly get inside the tube or carb inlet.
