Yellow PTFE on petcock threads?

Hello

I'm having trouble with weepy petcock threads on my 1972 Triumph Tiger and I would like to put some Yellow PTFE or Gasolia tape on there. Brand new petcocks, recently cleaned tank, brand new Dowty sealing washers everywhere.

All the old boyz in the bike forums say that yellow PTFE is great or that the bike will immediately self destruct just on the mention of it, so I figured it would be fun to see what you say.

What do you say?
