im going to install my B&M FPR and guage later today and it says in the direction that i should use teflon tape on some of the fittings. is this really necessary? thanks

 

yes you should. FYI it provides the surest possible fuel pressure.

 

use it on the gauge threading.

 

use the paste. you don't want any of the tape to rip off and get in somewhere.

Andrew: Depends.. you want it to leak fuel or not? We left tape off Realtor's car one time and it was leaking nicely...

tape has always worked for me

 

thanks dave, leaking fuel is not what i had in mind,

 

i used past and after awhile the fuel started to eat through it

 

Hondabond it.

 

For the FPR you do not need to use it...
But for the gauge, YES YES you need it... I try to install it without teflon tape
and there was a BIG leaking of gas...
