There is no leak. You have what sounds like some residual spilled food, clogging the tiny holes of the burner. A welders tip cleaner will help to push the food down into the burner, then you need to remove the burner, in order to remove all these little particles of food, grease, gunk, etc., so that it won't continue to be a problem. A neutral flame is blue, with a slight yellow lifting off the top.. This is the flame you want. If you have moved the venturi on the burner, this affects how much oxygen is allowed into the burn chamber, and it would have to be readjusted.

I think you were saying that most of the flame on the burner is blue except for ONE flame is orange. There is dirt in that opening. You can clean it out and it should be blue as the others.

It feels like the burners are clogged. each and all of the burners ought to come on interior of a few seconds. The burner in front of the igniter lighting fixtures furnishings first and lighting fixtures furnishings the different burners through crossover tube or the “wings” on the top of in shot burners. eliminate the burners and you’ll see the rusted aspects somewhat of course. sparkling out the rust with a twine brush and an air hose, reinstall the burners and you’re cured. you'll have a great blue flame and each and all of the burners ought to gentle rapidly. no count number if it somewhat is LP it could have a reasonably larger yellow tip than organic gasoline yet nonetheless specifically blue. If that doesn’t artwork permit it bypass with the aid of 3 cycles of attempting to gentle The circuit board will lock it out and it could have a diagnostic gentle on the board which would be flashing. count variety the style of blinks and on between the panels you will hit upon a itemizing of codes which will inform you what it somewhat is sensing. in case you nonetheless have not have been given any success get the form and form # and are available back right here and ask back. which will provide me or most of the different truly knowledgeable techs right here greater suggestions to get you up and working. 30 yrs hvac exp

Actually the blue is air but it doesn't mean a leak. I would check the holes where the flames come out and make sure they aren't clogged, if it burns irregular in size of flame then that may be a problem. Your local gas company may check the stove for you...don't know if they charge or not, wouldn't hurt to just ask. Maybe a male friend or a relative might know what goes on. If they burn evenly they are probably fine, They can be adjusted but, I don't know how. Good luck.

too much oxygen...you should clean the burner I think
or...Flame is orange Dust particles in main line. Allow burner to operate for a few minutes until flame turns blue.

It means your burner is set too high. If you lift the top of your stove up, you'll see a small hole at the front center of your stove, there is a flame adjustment screw there, you'll need a small screwdriver. slowly turn the screw as you watch the flame being adjusted . this should fix the orange flame .

It's not burning clean. Get it serviced.
