what should I use to sseal the threads on brass fittings for oil lines?
teflon or permatex form a gassket sealent?
it says its good for threaded fittings but I've not used it for oil lines before. one of the fitting i used teflon tape on is leaking so i guess i didnt use enough. |

Teflon...
Sometimes if you don't get the tape on properly, or it moves while you screw it in, it will leak.
So I got some Teflon paste stuff that seems to be working good. |
ops! I tried the permaflex stuff. is that bad?
oh well whatever, if it leaks I'll fix it again. its really very easy to rearch now that I dont have the second wiper fluid tank in my way.

RectorSeal® Tru-BluTM
RectorSeal® Tru-Blu<sup>TM</sup> is vibration resistant and tape tends not to be the solution for brass fittings and oil...maybe for air but in my experience a light coating of blue paste is best...this is what the refrigeration guys and F1 guys use...<ul><li><a href="http://www.rectorseal.com/slnts.htm">http://www.rectorseal.com/slnts.htm</a</li></ul>

nice thanks, I figured out that by leak was not from the filter relocation kit but
my oil pressure gauge. i was such a dumb ass I forgot to put any tape on it @ all.
