On the other hand fastened to the pipe aligned with paranitovoy butt pads. Important not to win, but then I first gasket tightened too much, and then are surprised that the gas passes. When unscrewed were two - internal and external, tube cut. After assembling all the connections, open the gas valve and always check the tightness of all of our new compounds with something good foaming , such as a solution of liquid to wash dishes. Patiently waiting to find even the smallest gas leaks, if any. Found the leak - close the gas tap, spin and rework sealing, and so on to complete elimination.
