Can you shut off an oil well by squeezing a pipe shut?
Yes, an oil well can be "shut off" by the use of a device that has a hydraulic ram that can crush and seal a pipe (or simply shut a valve) to secure a wellhead. The so-called "blowout preventer" is such a device, but in the case of the current disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, the device failed (owing to a failure to replace a battery, as one report had it).
When is it safe to remove the old packing from a valve under pressure?
If you are referring to the stem packing, you should be able to do it with no problem under pressure. Shut the valve off, take off the handle, then the nut with the packing in it, remove the old packing, replace it and reinstall the nut and handle. Open the faucet completely and that should be it.. Some valves use a rubber formed packing instead of the graphite or Teflon rope packing. Generally you can use either in place of the rubber or use a small amount around the stem with the old rubber.
What are some problems with a globe valve?
advantages of a globe valve * you get instant access to the supply: only a 90 degree turn to open fully * less maintenance is required to the valve as you won't have to re-seat it disadvantage of a globe valve * it is harder to finely adjust the flow of your substance compared to a gate valve: a gate valve requires many more turns to fully open and close than the single 90o "part-turn" required on a globe valve

What would cause gas in the oil of a 22 hp brigs and stratton engine?
One reason would be that the float valve may be sticking in the carburetor and letting gas flow by and into the engine when the mower is not running. The other thing I have seen cause this is one cylinder is not firing and that cylinder lets the gas by the rings and into the crankcase. Most of the time it is the first thing I listed. You can change the oil and install a shut off valve in the gas line. After you mow just shut off the gas valve. That will let you know if that is the problem. If it takes care of it you can either have it fixed or just use it with the shut off.
Where is the emergency gas shut off in a 1991 Chrysler lebaron?

How do you change out a flex line on a natural gas appliance?
I assume there is not a shut off on the supply side of the line. If you are used to working with gas, you can do it with the line charged, but it is probably best to shut the gas off at the main. If there is not a shut off valve where the flex line connects, I would put one there now. Then it is just a matter of changing the line. Do not use any pipe dope or tape on a gas connection, at least on the flex line. This is a flare fitting and does not require it. The valve to pipe connection is a plumbing connection and should have dope or tape on the threads.

Where is the emergency fuel shut off valve located at Also I am getting no fuel to the injectors. What could be the cause?
We would need to know the vehicle to answer this. To my knowledge primarily Ford used roll-over switches to shut off the fuel pump, other manufacturers use different methods, not a shut-off valve.
What can I do to be safe when I am hooking up a new flex line to an existing gas line which does not have a shut off valve?
Either shut the gas off at the meter or install a valve on the pipe. As long as you don't have an open flame somewhere close to the gas line and have everything ready, you can take the current flex line off and install the valve with little gas excaping. Use pipe dope on the threads of the pipe instead of Teflon tape. This lets you cap the pipe with your thumb while you apply the pipe dope. Then just install the valve and tighten, making sure to hold the pipe so that you don't disturb the next joint further down the line.
