I'm looking for a sealant or kit to seal brass NPT inserts into a
polyethylene tank. This is a Kitfox header tank that has developed a leak at
one of the inserts. I'm probably going to use Mogas that has ethanol
additives. Any hints, tips, thoughts?

Thanks,
Rob


Red high temperature silicon sealer. Local hardware store. Clean the
threads with alcohol and apply sealer. Lasts forever.



Except RTV is NOT gasoline resistant.
