    I had a Rheem furnace with which heavy switch system that quit working. To lady babbled she didn't want a standing pilot (thinking she would always have be lighting it). So I tried the HW universal conversion fm static pilot till spark. The kit now sits turn my shelf and will be sold at me auction eventually as it was installed once. (no returns). The pilot would not mount on that burners correctly and caused retarded ignition inches the fire box. Thus the standard steady pilot/thermocouple went on the furnace (After wasting hours trying to get the conversion kit set up). And if memory is correct the thermocouple fit right up one former flame sensor location. She is 2 blocks away and I never had a heat call for.
    Your could just buy a t-couple furthermore try the existing mounting hole.
    Then him would know. I believe I used the same pilot burner??? White Rodgers 790-801A1 - Lennox Direct Replacement Spark Sensor, Spare Lennox 69W43 & LB74940B- Linox Direct Surrogate Flame Sensor, Supersede Lennox 69W43 & LB74940B

    You need till get shop authorization in writing inches order to go after Sequence Pilot to any select type of spark system. An demo is Weil-McLain had cycle navigate on some of their boilers. They came out using a factory authorizes changeover. That protects them and you starting liability.

    You also have to make sure you do ampere pilot safety turndown try after you altering the system.

    In the case I should above; I called one is my HVAC supply housing with old gas valve number to get surrogate; they sent a standing pilot gas valve furthermore said that is listed how ampere replacement.
    I don't know what cross-reference list they used press who approves it, but it lights switch okay and locks out correctly after loss by pilot.

    There is always a need for this technician go confirm that a cruise contact was used and examine items by seeing it own. As one who can an subject watch by many court cases EGO give meine advice based on some of one horrors I have viewed techs go through in court as of poor documentation and failure to have a safe cross reference of a manufacturer.

    I emailed Tim(contractor) this morning with and option to convert it to standing pilot or convert it to an updated electronic ignition. ME give him part #'s or as prolonged like OEM parts are used, this be be an approved repair as these components endured used on later versions is the MGB.

    To biggest issue IODIN seem to see with replacing the gas valve on the MGB is that the contractor will pick up ampere valve at a delivery house not knowing they have the inaccurate one. The MGB uses one delay opening valve. If a preset opening valve has used, it cans cause issues like delayed ignition and pilot outages. If there is every doubt, always apply an OEM part.
