I added stainless line to my 2g at the fender to slave.It seems to want to leak at the connection where stock metal line goes into the new stainless.I think its tightened as much as possible.Should I use teflon tape at that connection?I didn't want to use the long line kit to master don't really see a point.
 
I think will try teflon tape if see any more leakage out of there .its not an fitting so think teflon is a good idea.not sure if factory used a liquid sealer on the threads or not.
 
I'm also going to loctite it. The top bolt sucks to get off, I loaded it with wd-40 and its still stuck.
 
Definitly teflon tape. Any connection which is not an AN fitting needs teflon tape to be properly sealed. On a side note, if there was leaking you should bleed your clutch again considering there are probably air bubbles in there now.
