OK, so as it turns out..... the valve is fully functional. LOL, bet you didn't see that one coming! I thought that I had adjusted the pilot light, but as it turns out, the screw I adjusted was, in reality, a cover for the pilot screw. So we took that off and backed the screw out 1.5 turns, and everything was great!!

Also the importance of bleeding the system is not to be underestimated here.

As soon as we got the heater lit up and working, the clouds broke and the sun came out. Doubtful I will need it this memorial day.

Default checking gas lines

The first thing thing I check in the spring is to soap down the gas lines to check for leaks. doesn't take long, and it's piece of mind
