"Teflon" Thread Sealing Tape ?
Robert,
The tape should not be necessary to get a drip free seal. The threads are
tapered to prevent dripping. Try assembling, without the tape, when the
engine and plug are at room temp. Check your manual for torque suggestions.
Teflon tape should be very heat resistant. Some thread tape is not
teflon. Look for PTFE.
