Fuel fitting sealant issue

So I’ve been trying to install a fuel pressure sensor, but I can’t get it to seal properly. I’ve been using permatex high temperature thread sealant. I’ve let it cure but as soon as fuel pressure builds up it just leaks so I’m not sure what else to do/use

I just use ptfe like above, but not that fancy. Hardware store should have it. Any ptfe paste.

Make sure your thread types are the same. Should both be NPT. Some overseas fittings use other style threads that wont seal well with NPT.
