    dirty burner assembly,

    spray it with cooker cleaner,

    and rinse well,

    new thermostat or fsd ( flame safety device, that sits in the flame )

    probably a dirty burner use cooker cleaner and a welding torch
    file tip file,to unblock the grease, bye karl...:j

    ps dont fanny about with your fsd that lays in your burner,
    as they are temperamental,and can snap,

    a bit like my girlfriend .......
  • The burners on my 16 year old cannon automatic cooker had become weaker with hardly any gas coming out of them even though I had cleaned and cleaned.

    I purchased a portable steam cleaner from a well know TV company and gave my cooker a good blast with it and it has come up like new.

    Im hoping to get another 16 years out of it.
