Teflon is a material that melts at a minimum of 200 degrees Celsius, and there are varieties that withstand up to 300 degrees Celsius. No car engine oil reaches that temperature, much less at the base of the crankcase where the oil temperature is no more than a few tens of degrees (60, 70, 80 degrees on average, or if you want to round up, to take a conservative estimate, consider 100 as a maximum). But me personally, there are times when in the case of oil, plumbing Teflon (which in fact is really designed for water) doesn&#8217;t quite work 100% &#8211; and I have to say that I have known mechanics who used it. In any case, the fact that the plumbing Teflon does not work is probably because the problem may be that it is designed to seal water and not oil.

They are made of nitrile rubber, as I said, semi-rigid, which means that their deformation is controlled (more than the copper ones but less than the rubber ones) and they are impermeable to hydrocarbons, oils and even gases. As they are semi-rigid but not as hard as a copper plug, they can better adapt to deformities or roughness that may have appeared on the plug seat without having to tighten the plug screw so much. So with or without a copper gasket combination, you can still save the situation for a very economical price.

purism\/fidelity to the originals versus functionality. And once again, our opinion is that there are no &#8220;red lines&#8221; or absolute truths here. Everyone has their own point of view, and all are more than respectable. In my personal case, as I said in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jgclassics.com\/en\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an entry on this WEB site<\/a>, I prefer a reliable result to a result that is 100% true to reality. It is true that fairings on a bass can detract from the &#8220;authenticity&#8221; of the car. But on the one hand they are not visible, and on the other hand they are removable if properly installed. Moreover, following a similar logic, many cars of the 1960s ended their days literally devoured by corrosion and rust, but today anyone restoring a bodywork will not forego an anti-corrosion primer &#8211;
