So how easy can I make my Charger start up all the time?

most fuel fittings are the flare type , so no thread tape or sealer is going to make any difference as it does not rely on the threads to seal , some fittings into the carb use a thin gasket to seal & a small amount of sealer May help , you do not want to get tape inside the carb plugging small holes inside !

IMO, dont use teflon tape on the threads unless you get one specifically impervious to gasoline...the white one will just get eaten. Best thing to use is pipe thread compound.

used it since I can remember. no problems ever have I seen where the teflon tape (white) got eaten by fuel. to each his own I guess.

I tried teflon tape. The fuel consumed it in seconds. Then I tried blue locktite. It worked perfectly.
