I have a GE JGP932 gas cooktop. (I think) All 4 igniters are popping at once when trying to light one. This goes on for a good 2 mins or so before the burner will ignite. When it does, the gas flame is so feeble, it takes another minute at least to come to it's full flame. The cooktop has not been cleaned recently so nothing is wet.
Please advise! Thanks!
Hi,
Your gas regulator has gone bad....
You will need to have it replaced...

All four a supposedto spark....most ranges are like that. Check for, in order and only as far as you're comfortable:
1. Partially closed gas valves
2. Kinked/twisted flex connector
3. Blockage in tubing (grease buildup is pretty common - blowing through it often works)
4. Clogged inlet screen on regulator. N.B. Only do this if you're confident you can reassemble it safely as it must be done safely and correctly. If not taken apart carefully, you may warp/bend a key component. If not reaasembled correctly you could have a gas leak.
Good Luck.

No, we are on natural gas that is city supplied. The cooktop is about 2 years old.
sounds like a bad valve or if all of them do it then you may have a bad supply.. are you on propane? you may need to fill the tank
