Fuel line NPT fittings.

I am using brake lines for the plumbing on my carb to existing fuel lines on my 94. I know that you don't use teflon on the flare fittings but for the NPT fittings to my pressure regulator and the inlet fitting on the carb do I use teflon tape or if not what are my options? Or will is seal with no sealent. I did a search and the question is answered in many different conflicting ways. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: Fuel line NPT fittings.

Use a paste type sealant on the NPT fittings
