Re: Teflon tape on flare fittings
Plus if the tape tears and gets into a line it could plug the line. I was priming a motor I rebuilt. I used teflon tape on the threads for the oil gauge. At first I wasn't getting a pressure reading on the gauge. When I removed the gauge, the tape was covering the small hole for the gauge.
