So i installed a fuel pressure gauge, and used some white teflon tape...now i hear NOT to use that, and only use the yellow stufF? i used the white. Will it be ok>? also does anybody have a write up on how to apply it? i just put one layer around the thread.

 

i used white tefon tape and worked perfect.
what the hell is the yellow stuff.

 

I've used the white tape on every car I've worked on and they all have been fine.

I have too, the yellow stuff is actually teflon paste.

 

 

ok, is there a trick to wrapping this stuff? i had to break it apart with my fingers since i didnt have a siscors, but the connection seemed too tight for anything to break off. I just wraped on one layer, and over lapped 1/2 layer. ill probably pull it off, and wrap the tape in the thread direction

 

they say to use the paste because the tape can come off in small peices and get clogged.

 

I've always used the white stuff, and never had a prob... Never knew about any yellow stuff.

 

Yellow is oil/fuel resistant so it wont break off as easy. White will do just fine. Just make sure when you wrape non of it can access the banjo holes and youll be fine.

Break off a small amount of teflon (i always use my fingers) And wrap 1 layer around the threads and your set. Just make sure its threads only and nothing else.
