A new plug has special seal compound already on the plug. It's recommended to replace the plug with each use ... I don't. I do the same as you and use Teflon tape. I found it takes 7 to 10 wraps to work, and be certain you wrap with the threads so as it tightens into the case it's not stripping the Teflon tape back off the plug.
