My Kenmore propane fueled gas oven gives off a powerful strong smell every time it is started. The burners on top do not. Is there any way I can correct this?

this is because the gas is on full before the oven lights
IT is an explosive situation and should be quickly corrected by an accredited gas fitter
the soot indicates an incorrect burn ratio and that will be the major part of the problem

I wouldn't. The plastic will give off some very acrid, toxic fumes if you try to self-clean it. First use a damp sponge to wipe up the baking soda. After that, you might be able to turn on the oven just a little bit to soften the plastic residue, then carefully, use a putty knife to scrape up the plastic residue from the oven floor.

Hello Cheryl Davis...

Your posting came in UNDER A DUAL FUEL

ELECTRIC - GAS combination...

If you are smelling gas... you are in immediate DANGER.

PLEASE turn OFF the gas at the wall...

The gas is not only toxic it is highly EXPLOSIVE ...

Do not experiment with your health & safety...!!

GAS appliances are very dangerous...
A single HOT-SURFACE ignition failure
should have caused the GAS to not flow...

If it is flowing ... you are in EXTREME DANGER.

Oven won't work

Yes. The ignitor must register 2.9 amps or more to operate correctly and ignite the gas. Replace the ignitor.

GE oven ignitor replaced, gas turns on but no flame

Yeah, blowing up the house is never a good way to replace an appliance :)

Try contacting GE at: http://www.geappliances.com/service_and_support/contact/form_service.htm. It should be free and they'll be able to help you narrow down what's going on.

Alternately, new GE ranges start at a little over $400 at Home Depot... You certainly have to appreciate keeping a good appliance going, but if it starts nickel & dimeing you, it may be that range's time to go.

Ge xl44 range gas smell

it's the safety valve, it's bypassing the gas. for you to put soup in there you will have to remove the oven burner. and put the soup on the tip of the orifice that's where the burner sits on.
