You're not going to see any leak without it being turned on.

check for leaks before you open the valve

Put the soap on first, then open valve. Are you having a reading comprehension problem or being pedantic?

Did you read what you wrote or you trying to be an asshole? You literally wrote, check for leaks BEFORE you open the valve.

You're having a reading comprehension problem.

Put the soap on to check for leaks before turning tap on.

This implies the soap is to check for leaks

All I said was you need to turn it on to see if it leaks. If you're explaining how to check for a gas leak, It's a pretty important step. By reading his comment, if OP knows nothing about it, which is clear by their asking, they could just put soap on it, see no bubbles, and then turn it on and walk away....

If op doesn't have the understanding of turning it on to see if it leaks op should hire someone to install their new dryer and return their adult card

Sure, but no reason to not give all the information, especially when it comes to something as dangerous as a gas leak.
