1. Re: LAX- how much time should I allow between flights??? First off, LAX has 8 terminals, number 1 through 7, plus the Tom Bradley International Terminal, sometimes referred to as TBIT, or Terminal 3.5, as it is located between terminals 3 and 4.
Tips & Warnings. 1  If you have problems attaching the fitting and you need to unscrew it and try again, don't use the same teflon tape that's already on the pipe, as it will be torn and balling up. 2  Run your thumb and forefinger around the thread counter-clockwise to pull off the tape, then re-apply a new piece.
1 Start by cleaning the male threads at the end of the pipe with a clean rag. 2  Place the end of the Teflon tape on the second thread in and hold it in place with one hand. 3  Wrap the tape in the same direction of the threads.4  Keep tension on the tape and wrap it several times working away from the end of the pipe. Start at the end (one thread back) and wrap the tape away from the end of the pipe. 2  Use at least 4 to 6 wraps of Teflon tape. 3  For cosmetic purposes, over-wrap past the threads and once the fitting is on peal back any exposed Teflon tape.
