Apparently thread sealer does not work. Every time it just leaks. What should I use to seal this stuff? I have the coupler (which I might not have bought if I knew I was going to have to plug two outlets instead of one as I only needed one for the gauge) and gauge from LS1Speed.

Permatex pipe joint compound. Be careful what it gets on because it does not come off.

I'd like to be able to remove this in the future, though. There has to be something that will seal it but can be removed without being a total PITA.

It is not a thread locker just a sealer that stays pliable for removal. I have used on a bunch of the fittings in my fuel system. It won't clean off without some elbow grease.

Is that the only option for this stuff?

Im having the same problem and never heard of the stuff mentioned above. May be worth a shot though.

I hear good things about Teflon sealant.

Teflon is not fuel compatable

That's what I was thinking. I guess the same goes for thread sealer. Doh.

+1 for Permatex liquid thread sealer.

Put a piece of teflon tape in some gasoline and watch what it turns to.

This is why they sell teflon braided lines. PTFE stainless steel lines are suposed to be the way to go for street cars. I think teflon would be fine, I know that the PTFE lines do not absorb fuel and smell like gas and can handle the heat and a whole lot more pressure.

You right it just must be teflon tape
