I have a gas LOPI in the home I purchased. After a couple years it started acting erratic in starting up. I checked the millivolts from the thermopile to the valve open and closed and they should be fine 470/260. Gas pressure is good .Nice blue pilot flame .So I was sure it must be the gas valve. I bought a new valve and after 2 days of nasty install time, I got it changed out. The new one worked as it should for a couple days and now is operating exactly like the old one. That is, it doesn't start the main burner from either the switch or the thermostat.
Is there something else that could possibly be an issue. The unit clicks when I turn on the remote but does not start. And the red light turns on on the small box that plugs into the wall.
All I can figure is that I got another faulty valve? Any help appreciated.
