Also important to clean up any left on threads when taking parts apart that have it.

Yes and no

If its straight threaded, it should come with a grommet to ensure the seal, if not a smear of red rtv at the base... teflon can get ugly if a piece spits up into the pressure sender or get to travel around the system. if a fine strip is added at the base of the adapter thread, that should never happen, but if it covers all threads, theres a good chance of chewed up teflon floating aorund in in the system
