Very useful info. I don't work in a maintenance job, I just wanted to disconnect my gas dryer. I was able to go to the big box store and get the right stuff. When the young man who was helping me handed me white nylon tape, I told him I needed the yellow tape. Grateful to have seen this video.

Excellent presentation - brief and complete. I wasn’t aware of the need for yellow gas-rated tape versus white electrical tape.

Thank you for keeping this video up after all of these years. Great time capsule, and evidence on how knowledge is everlasting! This was exactly what I needed for an unused gas line outside my home which prior house flippers never resolved.

Thank you Mr. Ken for this video. I'm glad you and other professionals are here teaching us "unwashed" masses on how to do things like capping gas lines or replacing garbage disposals and such. I'm also glad that you and the others aren't opportunists that prey on people's ignorance on these skills by overcharging them. Thank you again, sir !

Thanks so much. With the workforce being what it is today, it was so nice to have someone explain how to do this. I am glad I did not buy what was given to me to purchase for the job from my local big box store. It would have been the wrong cap and the wrong tape. The visual was great too. Now I know specifically what I am looking for to do the job.

I am changing from natural gas to an electric range. Got on to Angie's list somehow and got a call from a guy who said it was $39 for the first part of the service and after the person looks at it can fix it right away. I asked him what he meant by the "first part of the service" how much time did that cover because I did not want to pay more than $65 to have this done. THEN the truth came out. Their minimum charge was $195. If I decided I did not want the work done after the the guy determined what I needed. I would still have to pay the $39. What a way to sucker you in! Unfortunately, there are many people who would think that it is a 15 min. job and the part isn't much, so gosh, $39 sounds great. I am so glad I found your tutorial. Too bad there are so many greedy and unethical ways of doing business out there!! I will be doing this myself!!
