Flame on min to max double burner spreads out beyond the edges of my largest frying pan at any reasonable setting. Electrolux EW30GF65GSB. Flame from inner burner is yellow at most settings.

I have cleaned the burner ports and replaced the burner valve. Burner valve adjustment screws are at lowest setting (turned clockwise until they bottomed out). All other burners appear to be working normally. I don't think these burners have air gates.

Not sure but I do know a yellow flame usually means not getting enough air. I am wondering if the system has dirt that is keeping air from flowing. Try opening your valves a little bit and see if that works. Even taking the lines apart and blowing them and burners out. Don't know if this will help.

SOURCE: viking range - gas flame on one burner does not change

It sounds like the repair man was correct. The only variable is the valve, if the rest of the burners are fine then it will be the valve

SOURCE: yellow flame on the rear of my burner

Yellow is a "reducing" flame meaning low oxygen, whereas blue is an oxidizing flame. There is not enough air mixing with the gas. Clean out the pipes and free the air intake holes on the first stage of the burner assembly.

SOURCE: middle burner looks ok but has huge yellow flame

Sounds to me like the new burner that was put on, has the wrong gas orifice in it. Possibly a nat gas orifice instead of a propane orifice. If it's a propane grill, take it to your local propane co and have them look at it. Also, sometimes just a spiderweb or dirt dobber nest in the burner's venturi tube can cause that kind of problem. Blow it out with an air compressor and see if that's the problem.

You could have a clog in your gas line. Have the gas company come out to check the pressure.

Bob, your wife is partially correct. However, both burners should have blue flames with orange tips. Cleaning the burners and the their venturi valves, should solve the problem. When I say cleaning them, I mean removing and cleaning them.

Hope this helped you and Happy Grilling!!

I have a Kitchenaide model KGSS907SBL01 gas range. Everything works fine except that we find that the amount of heat generated is disappointing. This seems to come from the fact that the top of the grill...

Hello,
It would seem like reasonable thing to do.However the adjustment is typically for the low setting so you can adjust just the small flame just enough to simmer a pot without the flame going out from being so low its susuptable to going out on the low setting, also it so you can adjust the flame smaller so on low it isnt too high,causing it will boil when you intend to only simmer a dish your cooking. A question;is it all burners and have they always been that way?

I am using propane for my cooktop but all my pots and pans have been turning burnt black soot on the bottoms. It's ruining all my other dishes now from the dishwasher spreading it all over, We tried...

You don't have the right Gas to Air ratio..... Not enough air to the burners or you are running to low of gas pressure for propane... Propane takes a smaller orfice or operate than Natural Gas.....
You should have 10" of WC for Propane operation..
You will need a manometer to check it.
The flame should be a blue color with no yellow in it. There should be air shutters right at the orfice to each burners. You will have to play with the adjustment to get the best blue flame with no yellow in the flame.... Hope this helps.....

The flame does not spread evenly to all the burners and it will not heat beyond 200 degrees

Fuel starvation is the likely cause. Pressure regulator is bad, or an orifice is clogged.

Only 2 of the 4 burners will lite...cleaned orifices, inducer is running, pressure switch is good, spark ignitor operating. what would cause this?

A dirty flame tray. There is either a small tray between the burner tubes or holes at 3 and 9 O'Clock on the burners themselfs that help spread the flame from burner to burner. Pull out all burners and with a paper clip, clean out all the holes. Look at the base where the burners go for a trough. This also must be clean and free of debris. If there is an air shutter, make sure it is most of the way open to supply secondary air to the burner. Once you get all burners to light, you may have to adjust the air shutters to give you the blue flame with tips of orange/yellow. If this does not work, replace all the burners as a set.

WILL NOT LIGHT ALL 5 BURNNERS WILL ONLY LIGHT 2 THEN SHUTS OFF GOES TO LOCKDOWN

On a call for heat, the 24 volt thermostat sends a signal to the control module. The control module will indicate a call for heat with a light on the control either blinking or remain solid depending upon model. The inducer (exhaust) blower will purge all gasses from the furnace and pressurize a pressure switch. Once the pressure switch tells the module to continue, the electronic ignition will energize and send 120 volts to the igniter. The igniter will glow and you will be able to see it if viewed thru the small inspection port. Once the igniter gets hot enough, it sends a signal to the module opening up the gas valve (24 volts). Either a pilot will come on or the burner tube will ignite then spread the flame to all burners. Lastly a safety sensor will be looking for a certain temperature within a few seconds and the furnace will continue to operate and the room air blower will turn on in a minute or two.

What could go wrong? The unit will not run if there is no signal from the thermostat (bad thermostat or broken wire), the control module does not sense a signal from the thermostat (bad control), the inducer does not energize (bad motor), the pressure switch does not close (blocked vent piping, bad switch, plugged condensate hose), the igniter does not energize (bad control, bad igniter), the gas valve does not open or there is no gas (bad gas valve, broken wire, no gas), the pilot does not light (dirty pilot), the burner does not light (bad burner, plugged orifice, not enough combustion air), the flame does not spread to each burner (bad flame spreader, dirty flame spreader, more bad burners), the flame safety sensor does not detect flame (dirty or bad flame spreader, bad flame sensor, broken wire, bad control), or the room air blower does not energize (bad fan motor, bad control).
