looks like Permatex PermaShield will work as well. Just have to find a local supplier...

Been a while but now that the cleaned carb is back on the engine I was able to get the fuel pressure gauge and polishing filter installed. Little more hose used than I was wanting but the space is tight and this worked.
Carb cable to adjust, new wire harness and gauges all installed, time for spring commissioning |

Greg, looking good..the pressure gauge instantly tells you if you have a fuel delivery problem. While 3-4 PSI seems nominal, I've seen mine run just fine as low as 1 PSI too, while motoring thru a precarious mooring field.
In that particular instance, water got in the tank from a failed o-ring in the fuel filler and the water overwhelmed the Racor so bad that it was barely passing any fuel.
