Mike, Levi, Dave, Marshall, Tom, Rich, Jeff, and Harry-
Thank you all for your very good replies to my question about
teflon tape. The fuel leak is at the fuel filter center bolt (hollow
bolt) that holds the large fuel filter on. The little O ring on
this bolt is causing the problem.
OK, yeah, I would definitely NOT use teflon on the bolt that threads into
the fuel filter. That's just asking for something to get lodged somewhere
it shouldn't and with the O-ring at the top, I don't think it would have any
effect anyway. But you seem to already understand that. (:
