How to Fix a Low Flame on a Gas Stove Burner

This video will show you a possible quick fix how to correct a low flame on a gas stove burner.

[@erikallen81]

I almost got scared when the burner ignited!!! I wasn't used to that much flame!!!! Awesome man. Thank you so much!

[@Iasia_Alshabazz]

6/17/2023 I just did this. THANK YOU IT WORKED PERFECTLY -!!!! You just got a new subscriber!! I was so frustrated from the low flames now the flame like normal.

[@fiftyfreestylin]

You are my hero! We have a Wolf range and lived with this on our front burners for a couple months. Just watched your video and 5 minutes later I'm back at full capacity! Our gas hole was about 2 inches lower than the burner in a hole, so I had to tape a toothpick onto a coat hanger wire to reach it. So easy!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!

[@harried.7122]

Excellent video and extremely helpful. I've been trying to find the answer and every other video was related to the ignitor or the port the gas flows to the ignitor. I watched you video and even though the main gas hole looked clean, I went ahead and used a straightened large paper clip to clean the hole and now I have instant lighting of the burner and a very robust flame! Super simple repair and I went ahead and cleaned all the other burner gas ports as well due to the simplicity of the repair. Thank you for the video!

[@joshuanixon6843]

I was about to get my house inspected for sell and this was my only concern. It worked...you saved me some negotiating cost!

[@deepabakshi25]

Thank you so much ,you solved my problem in a minute. I did exactly as you showed and now my gas is flame is as new as ever . Cheers to you !

[@JennyAnnoni]

Thank you!! Just fixed two burners on my stove without calling the landlord.

[@ajkeysor]

THANK YOU!!! I kept on looking for a fix on my barely functioning burners (two in front), and was told to adjust the flame. Of course this did not fix my burner. I was about to give up and get a whole new stove and then found this. 2 minutes later, my problem is fixed and my stove has a new lease on life.

[@hjoe4473]

Worked as shown. Good explanation of what caused the problem. The fix was simple and effective. Thank you so much

[@arturomarengo]

Very usefull advice and more importantly, straight to the point. Thanx for posting this.

[@pamelab424]

Thank you so much had my husband do as you suggested and voila it worked. He will have to adjust the flame…saw that on another video 😊

[@pfeffer_corp7877]

I used a safety pin on my smallest burner and it worked! Thanks so much!

[@alinat.8853]

OMG thank you!!! After months (more like 2-3 years) of igniting my stove burners with matches and multiple failed attempts to figure it out, I came across this video and now my burners are igniting on their own AGAIN! Do you have a video on why a gas oven would not heat up?

[@blackman65438]

Wooow it worked thank u it's been two years since I used my bigger one thanks

[@XimenaJP1]

Lord have mercy!! I am dying with laughter! The last 2 years I had been struggling with this burner for 2 years and it took 10 seconds to poke it with a nail and restore it to its former glory!!!!!! I'm dead.... floored.... thank you so much. The 10 seconds I used this video granted you a subscriber and infinite likes on all other videos

[@michaeloverby3621]

Don't feel bad.......me too! 🤣

[@ladyfritz8r]

I think it's been two years for me too. Duh.

[@beatricereyes1098]

[@alfiemi4840]

thanks man... how such simple solution can solve a man's problem :)

[@bobbyturbopants]

I turned it on so the gas pushed dirt out as I cleaned, probably not safe lol. Thanks for the video, that was the issue for sure

[@jeremybolden3789]

Oh wow! My exact words after trying this.. Thanks!

[@decpey1]

Hey man thanks for that, it worked a treat on my sluggish burners. 👈

[@itk.r8rsn8k15]

[@pq2792]

Can you suggest a remedy for a clicking burner?

[@josephlore4831]

My small burner is not getting Hot Enough. Can I drill a slightly larger hole to get higher flames?

[@miracleobi4730]

So so helpful

[@MrMksweet]

Amazing! Kudos

[@stevechan6016]

it works!!!! Thank you!!!

[@nicoledenel]

I know I have this problem but the hole in my stove is much smaller and can't seem to find a tool that fits in there. It is the size of a needle but can't find anything long enough to clean it properly

[@joycenjenga1935]

Thanks 🙏

[@samhamis1082]

How about if u have high flame on one side and regular flame on the other side of the same burner

[@ramansingh14]

You, my friend, have just made me look like a hero in front of my wife 😂. There is no way I'm telling her how easy it was. Thanks pal!!

[@JESSESGRL24]

It’s 10:30 at night and this video just saved us from buying a new stove tomorrow. You are a life saver!!!!

[@Gum05]

Thanks man! My dad passed away this past summer and I’m now tasked with taking care of mom and the maintenance of their house. She had this exact same problem and with your help I had it fixed in less than 2 minutes! Mom was elated! Thanks again!!!

[@Dre9Mega]

Thank you so much! I was having the said issue with a small burner, used a floss stick to clear the gas hole and bam! It's now good as new 😁 hope you're keeping safe and thanks again 👊🏼

[@user-yc4fw4fp7t]

You made me a hero with my wife of 50 years today. Thank you so much.

[@ricojohnp7456]

me too haha

[@abialli5075]

Very helpful and 'straight to the point' video. Instructions worked... Yay! Almost called someone to replace my burners. Thanks a lot!

[@davidcampagna2223]

WOW! I used a brush thats used to clean out an airbrish (micro tube brush) and cleaned all the burners on my stove in 1 min. Thank you!! I do think that using a tooth pick leaves the potential for the tip to break off in the valve and then you have bigger issues.

[@treehugnhipi3765]

i used a large paper clip that i straightened out so that would not happen. 😎

[@tompainting2595]

Terrific. Worked like a charm. My wife thinks I'm a magician

[@fatmakhan6790]

In the morning I searched for my problem and as i watched this vdeo, i immediately tried it and 100% positive result came out. So i m here only to thank u.

[@coyotecreekband236]

My main burner had stopped working effectively a couple of years back. I finally searched and found your video. In one minute I had the problem fixed and back with a fully functioning stove. THANKS

[@Birdie-gd9qn]

I think this might be the first video on KZbin with no negative comments! Good for you!

[@sellahom]

OMG thank you, I have been trying to figure this out for months!

[@princessmary103]

Please help. I used a needle for mine because the hole is tiny and it broke inside. 😭

[@milesfisher278]

For the love of god don't use a toothpick for this, it will likely snap and make a bad situation worse. These hobs are all designed with a removable stub so you so you can get the gunk out. It's the hex-head bolt where the gas comes out that is removable (right in the centre). Just unscrew that and remove the short stubby bolt, then you can give it a proper clean before putting back in place.

[@tracieperez2629]

Could you not just do the screw removal if the toothpick actually broke? Or will it be permanently stuck?

[@GZDUZIT031]

You the man

[@JamesBarometer-jv9kk]

[@colacoca2000able]

I just try it and it work amazing. Yes now my food can cook properly. Thank you so much.

[@jacquesowens]

[@gdamitjanet]

Thank You! I just bought a used stove and all the burners were low output. You just saved me a service call.

[@zzrsteve7934]

My front two burners were burning low. I found your video and it worked! There's a little hole below the hole you show that I stuck a long toothpick in and twisted around a bit. Bingo! They both work like new! Thanks!

[@patinpatin12]

This hack works! I was about to buy a new stove because only the back burner on my stove was working. It took 5 minutes to clean all of them and now it burns like new. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@jmac4979]

Hack?

[@NolotyLara]

It really does, I thought I had to switch my stove, but it was the gas thing… omg what a relief

[@rose106]

I was ready to call a plumber...To walk in the door, it would have been 350.00 ...Thank you so much....

[@ebymodebelu]

Didn't think that this simple method will sort my burner out, what a sight to behold! Thanks so much, didn't know I would be this pleased watching flames 😀😍😍😍

[@dreamingcode]

My wife is online right now expecting me to buy her first Viking stove sees absolutely over the moon. Wait till I tell her our stove is fixed😂

[@noodlehockey]

Geo!!! You are the man. I was convinced my valve was going bad and was having trouble finding info about my stove to replace it when I found your video. 30 seconds later and the problem is solved!!! Thanks again!

[@sofiaali9486]

Thank you so much, felt a bit silly putting a long sentence in Google. I used a thin paint brush for a bit more gentleness.

[@Fluffy_Fox_Wearing_Socks]

Thanks for posting this! Literally saved me a few hundred dollars as I was about to call for a service visit. Cheers!!

[@cynthiamosley5619]

Me too

[@mjdeluxe]

you're a life saver! my mom had this issue for months and i felt like a genius being able to look this up and fix it in just a few seconds!

[@charlottevincent6927]

Thanks my large burner is the same way tried everything nothing worked so i stopped using it now I will try to do it. Thanks for the tip

[@darrenbrandy14]

Worked a treat thank you however a cocktail stick did snap flush to the hole and took about 10 minutes to retrieve so I used a needle which I found was better.

[@sydneygrey822]

Thank you! I was deciding to call someone to come and fix this issue I had with one of my burners but then, Google found your video for me. God bless!

[@BB-kf8ro]

Thank you for this I just tried it and my burners are back.

[@laughing-cat]

Thank you so much for posting this!! You just helped me fix two of my low burners that I've been putting up with for years!

[@fiftyfreestylin]

Exactly right....amazing what we decide to live with. I just freed mine up after months.

[@pakakeoindustries9914]

Please help me one the gas stove is switching its self ,when you try to switch it on .

[@kylekoenig4730]

@@pakakeoindustries9914 like one lights then the flame travels to another burner?

[@willrogers1023]

Thank you! I learned something new and solved the low flame problem! Thank you!

[@treehugnhipi3765]

thank you! i had not even looked down there, just cleaned out all the little holes on top and knew it had to be somehow the gas was not getting through to the burner because it was lighting. the little hole on my stove was further down, but i opened a large paper clip and with a magnifying glass and flashlight, just cleaned that out. working like new!!!!! i am reading this on january 1, 2022...happy new year to you and yours! p.s. my 88 year old "i can fix anything" dad was awestruck...i told him it was thanks to the smart dude on you tube...😎😉

[@saraoosterman8822]

It’s working 😀Thank you very much for your advice

[@franciscoluna9596]

Thank you for such a simple and effective tip! I was so frustrated, was about to call my Landlord -but didn't want to cause expenses and troubles for him- so I was about to start disassembling the stove....thanks again for solving my problem in 3 seconds!

This video just saved me a ton Of money, stone works great. Thanks dude

[@Trendingkikiskitchenandvlogs1]

Thankyou so much I saw yr video and did it immediately, but the hole inside my gas stove was too thin so I couldnt use a toothpick instead I used a dot pin finally it's flame Is burning absolutely high .

[@ralphcowling2417]

Really great, thank you. I just sorted all of my hobs with this! One extra tip: when the lids are off, once you've done a good bit of gouging around you can run the gas to pop all the small pieces out. If you put the lid back on it stops the gas from pushing the debris out of the valve.

[@PeartDisicple481]

Thank you for the information it worked

[@DaveAbercrombie1]

Yep, I was certain I had to replace something, and this was exactly the problem. You da man! Thank you!

Because after watching your video and using the toothpick to clean the hole. All four of my burners work with high flame. AMAZING how something so simple and small can WORK and SAVED me a lot of money. Thank You Again.

[@Stephanie-u6i8k]

I have been only using 3 eyes on my 4 eye stove for years. Recently a second eyes flame was lower that the others. We were going to call Sears for repair when I remembered “you tube” I watched 3 videos with different repair ideas, no good. Then I saw your video, you are my hero. All is good with my stove. Thank you!!!
