I say the pilots that do not work are plugged with dirt. Shut the gas to the stove down and take these lines and pilots apart and clean real good. Worse comes to worse get yourself a small propane torch and light the stove that way. If you do that make sure the gas does not leak out of the plugged ones.
no
the modification from natural to propane or from propane to natural gas requires a jet change for all burners and an air flow shroud position change to get the correct blue flame ( correct air /fuel ratio)
it is a job for a gas fitter who will have the correct jets for each burner and will know how to adjust the shrouds
You can change a natural gas stove to propane or go the opposite, but you cannot make an electric stove into a gas stove. You will need to buy a new stove if you want to go that route. Sorry.
Most ranges can be converted with the orfices being changed.Newer ranges have the orfices under the top.Older ranges can be convetrted by drilling the orfices larger.(propane orfices are smaller than natural gas.Sears can sell you a conversion kit if you know the model and serial #.Most Gas companies will convert it for a fee.
Hello. One question has your range burner jets been changed to LP (liquid
propane). If you are using natural gas jets for the burners and ovens this make
the heat and flam fluctuate in temperature and the same for the oven. Natural
gas jets are larger. One more thing here! There is a control valve spring with
cap in the stove gas regulator that has to be taken out and turn around.
Search the operation manual on how to changes jets from natural gas to LP. In
back of the stove behind one of the panels is a small cloth bag contain these LP
jest and also there should be set of instruction in a bunch of languages.
If you are going to do this yourself--- DIY. Read those instruction ever
carefully. There a bass ball valve that hook to the gas line before the flex
stainless line behind you stove. Turn the nob to where it perpendicular to the
gas line. Open the windows in the house and turn off all electric equipment such
as, fans, toasters, don't be clicking the light switches off and on. Just
a precaution for you and your family safety.
Check with your city zoning ordnance about home owner changing their gas jets
in the range. Some cities and states won't allow you to due this. Then you will
need a technician to preform this operation. I wish you and family well being
and you safety first... GB you...stewbison
You will need to conact a gas safe engineer who will change your gas jets from natural gas to LPG, then carry out various test to makesure your flueless appliance burns the gas safely and efficiently
