Question on sealing fpr male fittings

ok i installed my SARD fpr last week. now there are these male fittings that i screw into the fpr to connect my fuel line to. i was wondering what everyone with an fpr used to seal your fittings. i used teflon tape but i am affraid that a piece might brake away and get stuck in my fuel injectors and end up blowing my motor. is there anything better i sould use.


thanks

teflon tape works fine, just don't use it on the first three threads. teflon paste works also.
