[Shop-talk] sealant for tapered threads in gasoline line. Hylomar?

[Pat Horne]

That’s it. You might try to find a smaller package, I could do several engines on this size container! I didn’t see that they still sell it in tubes so it might not be available. 

What makes this stuff so good is that it doesn’t harden so it doesn’t fracture under small movement. 

Peace,
Pat
