Long story short, I am trying to cap off this gas line in addition to having it shutoff at the hex key valve on the wall. The unit is no longer going to be used.
It appears there are two reducing fittings. I can’t seem to get the bigger second one shown off. It looks like someone painted the fittings and I’m sure that isn’t helping but it appears to be brass on maleable iron.
First question these are all normally threaded right i.e. lefty loosely?
Second question aside from penetrating oil, pipe wrench, and elbow grease anything else I’m missing?
