An outright failure means a gas leak, whereas particles in the line could lead to clogged orifices. If you're not comfortable; or you don't have the tools or knowledge for, working on gas lines, it's best to leave this job to the pros. | |

On another note, this pipe goes to a dryer, would it be a major problem or small problem. Is it dangerous to use without having black steel? | |
