prop valve/mod question

when doing this mod, is it necessary to put the spring and plunger back in with the allen head bolt? Or can you just install the new bolt with the teflon tape and be done with it (then of course bleed the brakes)

Use: Permatex high temp Thread Sealant (white tube/ buy it at just about any auto parts store) instead of teflon tape. Brake fluid will start to desolve teflon tape.
