Both of the banjo fittings are leaking on my TD after a carburetor rebuild.
The proper fiber washers are installed and the banjo bolts are well
tightened. Is there a fix for this? Would a very thin coating of Permatex #2

I've always found that new fiber washers leak for a while...maybe they have
to swell a bit. gentle retightening has worked for me. If you have to
resort to a sealant, something is wrong. It is fairly easy to strip out the
threads in the float bowl tops so be careful.
