I am going to be replacing a small section of underground sewer pipe that

Can I use a Fernco coupling to connect the new PVC to the old underground
cast iron sewer pipe?

If not, how is that type of connection usually made?

Wrap about 200 layers of duct tape around them. *I saw this on one of

Pretty common to butt the two pipes together and mix up a couple of
bags of Sakrete and dump it on the joint.
