Old gas stove safety question?


Question:On an old gas stove, about 35 years old, it has pilot lights.

Made by G.E.

If that pilot light goes out, will the gas automatically shut off.

I don't know if all old gas stoves will do that, or were there ever any that weren't made that way and the gas will just keep running.

Answers:
35 yrs is pretty old. if i remember right, the gas continues to run if the pilot light goes out. your best bet is to get hold of ge and ask them.


Hi, my stove is about 48 years old. It's pilot light always goes out, and the gas stops. Call the Gas Company, they will be glad to come out and check it for you at no charge.Bye
It will probably keep running.If you have that kind of problem have a gas person come look at it.
