Good Morning,
Any opinion on thread sealant for gasoline fittings. I have used blue locktitie,242,without to much problem. I rebuild carburetors for air cooled engines every day and most manufactures use a sealant that looks like varnish? Obviously, not what it is, but I still dont know what it is. I use an ultrasonic cleaner and special water base soap and this removes the oem sealant and all old fuel deposits. Loctite is a little hard on removal of brass fittings but works.
