Hi Mystyler,

Thanks for that mate I actually did a search on fuel fitting sealants and it seems that the old Permatex Number 3 that I have sitting in the shed is also resistant to fuels. It has been years since I used this stuff when I replaced automotive water pumps and I thought it was only resistant to oil and coolants but not fuel. I guess i'll give this stuff a go when I remove and replace the fuel tap on the old Victa 2 stroke lawnmower. At least it's a soft setting sealant so hopefully I can one day again unscrew and remove the fuel tap if I ever need to replace it.
