Teflon tape will not dissolve. I used it just as you suggested. It does tend to ball up on the threads if you use too much.

The speed bleeders do work as advertised. I recently replaced all four calipers, installed a tee, master cylinder,and new hard brake lines. I used a pressure bleeder but could not get a firm pedal after pushing three quarts of fluid through. I installed the speed bleeders (from Pelican) and got a high hard pedal, but only after driving for a few miles around town after bleeding.

The left front is closest to the master cylinder and is the last one bled in sequence. I would bleed all four: rr, lr, rf, lf.
