Default 044 fuel leak

Well, when I put the pump in I had the wires mixed up, and the pump was pumping backwards....... now I got it straight, and there is still alittle fuel comming out the back where the fitting connects to the tank. Its the fitting that screws into the pump.... should I have used teflon tape there because I didnt?

Jason - the inlet fittings on the Bosch fuel pumps are metric O-ring.
You MUST use an aluminum or copper washer.
Teflon is incorrect.
