Have a Whirpool gas stove/oven that we've had for the last 10+ years.
Lately, it seems that it's taking longer for the oven to heat up. I tested it last night, and the oven got to 350 in 12 minutes. That seemed normal.
Today, I had two of the stove burners going while the oven heated up to 350. It took 25 minutes to get there. Seems kind of like the burners were taking some of the gas and there wasn't enough left for the oven. But I didn't see a difference in the rate it heated up even after I turned the burners off.
Does anyone know what doohickey in a gas range controls the gas flow is called? I think I need one.
