Pilot Burners/Thermocouples Technical Bulletin 5

5. If you cannot secure ignition of the main burner when the pilot flame

has been reduced to the point at which the BASO drops out, the pilot
has been located too far from the main burner and must be moved
closer. Repeat Steps 2, 3, and 4.

Observe the pilot flame under the various test conditions and ensure it
appears stable at all times. Use a millivolt meter to determine the stability
of the pilot flame. During the observation, or test of pilot performance,
position the doors of the appliance in their normal operating position.
Good pilot operation can be affected by many draft conditions, appliance
design, and recirculation of combustion products.
