Replaced sparker on our Amana stove.

I two years of my wife lighting our Amana stove's cook top with a campfire lighter I got the idea to replace the spark lighter on day. I noticed when looking at the burners as I turned the spark lighter that at certain times there would be a spark at the burner but at other times there was no spark.

I found the part online, it cost about $30 and took a few minutes to replace. The stove now lights every time and I'm her hero.

I also remove the burner elements and found a lot of gunk and burned stuff inside. After a few minutes of knocking the burners on a block of wood and shaking I had a pretty big pile of junk removed from the burners. I also opened up a few of the wholes that were plugged with a little dental brush pick.

This was a simple and cheap tune up for the stove, hope this helps someone.
