I'm in the process of cleaning out a rusty gas tank and have a replacement petcock that threads into the tank.
My question is do I Teflon or dope the threads at all before installing?

Thanks. Jason.

Teflon tape is not recommended for gasoline. Breaks down. Yellow tape for gas is natural gas or propane. Believe form a gasket 3 is gasoline stable.
