The #%$@ing pilot light keeps blowing out on the #%$@ing furnace |
|
There's a little screw on the gas valve assembly that is labelled "pilot adj" and is listed on the manual as a "pilot adjustment screw". I'm thinking this will make the pilot flame a little bigger, and less likely to be blown out. But I don't want to screw around with gas, if you know what I mean.
Looks like I'm just going to have to keep re-lighting the pilot until I have a day off in a couple of weeks... ~insert sighing smilie here~

1. Little secret, try cleaning the thermal coupler |
|
It's the little tube next to the flame. just give it a buffing with a little wire brush and it will conduct heat better.
