WRONG !  Absolutely wrong !  The ground path for the switch could be compromised by using teflon tape.  The threads are tapered and with the aluminum washer/GASKET in place on the sender will seal perfectly without tape !

      Please note that I will be away from my business travelling from November 16 until April 30, 2016.  Parts orders will be processed although not as quickly as usual.  I will always be available for contact by E-mail.  If you phone your call will be addressed by Steven and he will either call you back or advise you to contact me directly by E-mail.  

Cheers,
