I am sure that your intentions were good...
Thought about this for a couple of days, who really uses teflon tape with AN fittings? Are you sure that is teflon tape in the photo? Even if you have a pipe fitting somewhere, the part you wrap with teflon never even comes into contact with fuel flow. Telflon tape is great for it's intended purpose even around a fuel system...like most problems with a car, they are self-inflicted wounds if they happen.
In all of my days, I have never had a clogged fuel filter, hung needle and seat or any of the other things you hear about here.
BTW, good luck to the orginal poster.
