What size fitting is that between the sensor and housing?
I run a similar setup to JSM but use a relocation hose and snubber with my gauge mounted in the A pillar. I’ve had good reliability out of all three gauges over the past year or so.

It's the one from glowshift, metric something to 1/8 npt. I added a 45 to give more clearance and a snubber at Isspro's request. My oil pressure sender failed and when I called to order another one they recommended the snubber in the fuel pressure line.
autex 0-100psi sending unit off of amazon. Connected to the universal harness on the CTS2. Same adapter as glowshift with a male/female 45 degree elbow to point it at an angle downwards so the sensor wasn't into the radiator hose. Couldn't see spending the $$$ that Edge wanted for a pressure sensor. Their pressure sensor kit still requires the universal sensor harness extension. I was already running EGT probe, so now all the things are monitored.
I figured it out. It needed a ton of sealing tape and a layer of rubber sealing compound. I think the threads are cut a little too narrow and allow it to leak some.
You shouldn't need anything on it, it's metric thread. It will go flush with the face of the housing, the o-ring will "disappear' when you tighten it. I wiped a little bit of diesel on mine and just installed it.
