Subject:      Teflon tape difference: Propane Leak solved
Comments: To: "Michael J. Sullivan" <sullivan@OPENMARKET.COM>

One is yellow. The other is white.

Interestingly, my propane guy (and I seem to recall the instructions to my regulator confirmed) that teflon tape isn't needed/isn't good for propane fittings. I' don't know anything more about it...
