I'm installing a new fuel pressure gage. Is some type of sealant/thread locker called for on the fuel line that threads into the back of the instrument?
Seems like just screwing in the fuel pressure input line into the back of the instrument without securing it some way is asking for vibrations to maybe cause loosening over time, and leaking fuel into the cockpit behind the instrument panel.
I really don't like messing with fuel lines, and I've never done this job before. Looks like a simple (ha ha) remove-and-replace, but the fuel line input is a thinker for me. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
