[BlindHandyMan] Gas Stove Question?
Okay, I know I haven't posted in a while, but here is my question. What can I do if the flame on two of my gas burners does not appear to be the same, even when adjusted to the same setting on both burners? We were making pancakes this morning, and of course, we had to place the grittle over two burners. The flame was higher over one of the burners, than it was on the other. What might account for this, and how can we fix it, if it's even repareable? I wouldn't have noticed this because I don't usually use burners simultaneously, in that fashion, so it took us some time to figure out. Our sighted son was the one that noticed one of the flames was higher, than the other. Claudia [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

sounds like the burners are clogged a bit. i'd call an aplince repair store and ask if they can be cleaned out. jim [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Most burners are factory set at different BTU. Adjust the high burner to match the lower flame - Original Message - From: Claudia To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, February 06, 2010 17:18 Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Gas Stove Question?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Gas Stove Question?
Could be that your son noticed the difference because the front burner is a different size than the back burner. You can varify this by feeling the caps that sit on top of the burner. The higher BTU burner has a larger diameter cap(usually made of castiron) . - Original Message - From: Claudia To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, February 06, 2010 5:18 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Gas Stove Question?
