I recently installed a new shutoff under my sink and it has a 3/8 compression fitting for my dishwasher. I want to cap off the fitting until my dishwasher gets here.
The problem is I can't get the cap to seal. I purchased a 3/8 compression cap and applied teflon paste to the 3/8 outlet on the shutoff valve.
Am I missing something? The guy at menards confirmed that I can use a compression cap to seal off the outlet. Is he wrong?
Thanks for the help!
