I run one 1260 externally and it leaks from the outlet. I have wrapped a ton of teflon on it b/f screwing it in and it still leaks. Do I just put a bunch more?

Are you using a sched 40 or 80 fitting? The sched 80 has longer threads and will screw in farther. I never ran mine external, so dont know how well the 3/4" seals.
