After having my rail re done I need to put the ECC sender and test point back in
What do you use to seal them?
Thanks gents

There was some gundge on them when I removed them

The fuel temp sender boss is blind Joe no sealer necessary just screw in and nip .... done, there should be no gunk on them the test point are you talking the schrader valve?

[jojackson4]

Yep the valve that looks like it belongs on a push bike

Is that a new rail or cleaned and coated?

Cadmium plated

[Sardonicus]

If the schrader valve screws into a body that then screws into the FR then I would use a little Loctite 542 thread sealer, if your on about just the schrader valve itself then no dry assemble only, cant remember what how it mounts now and my car is all covered up at the moment so cant check

Where can you get cadmium plating done these days? I thought it had been banned except for safety critical aerospace stuff

Nothing.

Loctite 542 (as already suggested). Don't use PTFE tape, bits may end up inside
