SOURCE: pizza oven does not light
thanx for the email reply .oven lighting problem was caused by the pilot light not quite touching the flame tubing
SOURCE: I ran out of propane...so now truck is filling us
Hi there, hope this helps. On the front of the oven, usually on the left side, where your thermostat is, has a red button sticking out, that is your pilot safety. To light it, you need to open the lower door, and aprox. in the center of the area, is your pilot, has a small pipe going to it, you have to hold the red button in, and light the pilot in that lower chamber, and most of the time, once the pilot is lit, you must hold the button for 60 to 90 seconds. If it does not stay lit when you let go of tthe button, you may have additional problems, let us know. And thank you.

Hello. Usually this problem is related to the pilot being dirty, and
not heating the bulb for the safety device properly/hot enough to fully
open the valve. If you have a general purpose mini torch you can heat
the metal bulb near the pilot with it, if this is the problem, the
safety will open, and the main burner will come on. CAREFUL, you are
not on/around the main burner, as it will allow gas to come on to the
main burner, and if your pilot is not working properly, might not light
the gas. Get the pilot cleaned and adjusted.
or... :) I know...
your safety has failed, allowing gas to the pilot, but internally is
not opening, this requires replacement. Last though, it could be your
thermostat, its last in line, and would require replacement. The
safety, and the thermostat are mechanical valves, open or closed
depending on its function.
If you have a more current type,
they will have a combination valve, and thermopile/thermocouple that
are electromechanical, your thermostat at this point can be either
mechanical, or electromechanical. This system has a few more possible
causes for your symptom.
You can tell which you have by how you
light the pilot, have a red button on the front of the unit, by the
on/off valve? this is the first type.
Have to open a small door to access a knob, turn it to pilot, and hold in? this is the latter type.
ask if you need more help.
Hope that helps, and thank you.

-
Turn off the gas at the main valve at your utility box
-
Wait five to ten minutes for gas fumes to waft away
-
Get a long match—yes, a fireplace match, not a standard match
-
Set the gas valve on your furnace to "pilot"
-
Press the red button as you hold the match to the pilot valve
-
Keep pressing the red button for 30-60 seconds so the pilot can heat the
thermocouple. Release the button and see if the pilot remains lit
-
If pilot goes out, wait five to ten minutes and repeat the process
-
Once the pilot stays lit, turn the main gas valve back on
-
If the pilot light continues to go out, call a technician, who may need
to adjust or replace your thermocouple or adjust your pilot
