MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Fuel tank pipe nipple

1275 - the fuel supply pipe from fuel tank to fuel pump hose - does the nipple on end of pipe that locates into the fuel tank need sealant or is it best fitted dry?
Cheers, Steve

Steve,

It shouldn't need sealant as the nipple is pushed into contact with the internal pick-up pipe at the back of the tank boss and that should form a seal on its own.
