Just don't overtighten them and crack the casting. A long time ago, I used to use a product called "Leak-Lock" which was designed for high pressure refrigeration fittings. It was a thick liquid that resembled blue Loctite. Using sealer on fittings that operate at the pressure of carbureted fuel systems is pretty much redundant. Jerry
