Thanks, 67Dart. I certainly was not intent on making one, I simply thought that I was out of options. Once diymirage stepped in with that part, I went to the parts store and tried again. With this extra bit of info, they were able to send me to the local speed shop (I dunno why I didn't think of that) who had what I needed.
You're absolutely right. While I understand that you're not directing the comment at me specifically, I'll use myself as an example. I used to be a member of the 'Teflon on everything that has threads' camp, simply out of ignorance. More is better, right? A little Teflon as insurance, right? But the more experience I get, the more people I talk to who actually know the correct way to do things, the more I learn. This is when it's important to keep an open mind when someone is trying to give advice, because just maybe I'm wrong and they're right.
