Default Fuel pump leak

I am getting a slight leak from one of the fittings on the fuel pump.
is it OK to use thread sealant on this to stop the leak?

Yeah, you can use it. WON'T stop the leak though.

Double flare fitting doesn't seal that way!

Generally, it's not recommended to use thread sealer on fuel lines anyway...little bits can wind up in the carb....where it of course, will seal when you least expect it.

I would just buy a new one or make sure that your hoses are tight.
