Gas leak
« on: Sep 26, 2010, 09:22:07 AM »
I just installed a new fuel pump in my 4runner. After I connected to the fuel line and attemted to get her started fuel started to leak at the thread section. What can I use to seal the leak? Would plumber's tape work?

plumbers tape will help but make absolutely sure the threads arent damagedand you get the fitting tight as possible
