Default Fuel Lines & thread compound

Can you use TFE paste on fuel line threads (the little blue fittings
which are NPT on one side & 32 deg on the other)? If not, what is
reccomended?

Thanks,
Evan

P.S.
The label of the TFE bottle suggests it is good for fuel & oil

A fuel resistant grease such as "fuel lube" or whatever the modern
equivalent is. The tube I have says "EZ Turn Lubricant."
