Default is not teflon tape good enough for pipe thread

had some coolant seaping around inlet and optional plugged inlet on water pump. both are 3/4" pipe thread and i used teflon tape. guess the teflon tape is not good enough with pipe thread, maybe go the rtv route. puddle formed over the course of couple days so it wasn't a gusher.

this is with npg so maybe it is a little more seapage prone or eats teflon.

nothing like the suspense between finding a puddle on the floor and discovering where it came from.
