Teflon or not
 

so i'm going to install a oil press. gauge tommrow with one of tuner toys take offs. i've heard mixed reports about using teflon tape with any oil fittings involved.


What do you guys think/recomend, and whats the reasoning?

Re: Teflon or not
 

If you are using NPT fitting, telfon is required. The "T" mean taper fit, which does not seal.


You don't use teflon on flare fittings, like -AN and such.

I used it on the block fitting, 2.748279798745 years strong, and growing.

Re: Teflon or not
 

i use teflon on everything.. ---- sometimes i eat it to keep me strong, yeah thats right!

Re: Teflon or not
 

Your ---- should like just slide right on out and leave your cornhole sparkling clean since nothing should stick to it with the telfon your eat. lol.

it does feel good to take a dump. i'll recomend it to everyone :P

Re: Teflon or not
 

Just make sure you wrap the tape correctly. It should only be wrapped one way.

Re: Teflon or not
 

just dont use it on extremely high heat or gas lines

Re: Teflon or not
 

I use that or pipe dope. Just don't go overboard and get it in the oil.
