James for Model Number AGR5844VDW1 The Oven (Grill & Broil) and the 4 cook-top burners all worked well until a couple of months ago. 1st we noticed the cook-top burners had a large "lazy" flame and the cook-top was hot to touch. The oven also ran hot externally. Removed the cook-top and noticed flame coming out the side of the burner through the air inlet hole. It appears as though the gas pressure is too high. Called the gas company, there has been no change to the gas or the pressure. Suspect the Valve Regulator (5761959) is not regulating the gas pressure. Is it possible to adjust the pressure? There is almost no restriction on air passing from the input to the cook-top output port as I blow into the input port. When air is sucked out of the small brass cap hole and the hole block-off, the valve shuts off. The valve then slowly turns on as air flows into the brass cap hole. Is the regulator faulty, please?
Answer Hello James, from your description, it does seem to be a gas pressure problem as the cooktop and oven burners are affected.. But you did not say if the stove is on Nat or LP gas supply. The pressure regulator can only be set for either Nat or LP gas supply. The test for the correct gas pressure going to and coming out of the stove's pressure regulator requires a Manometer. You may want to have the gas supplier do a pressure check at your home at this point. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, July 1, 2019
