We have a 10 year old gas hot wate heater: Kenmore Power Miser 8. The pilot keeps going out. I re - light it and it will go back out in about 24 hours. The pilot won't come back on right away with the pilot dial depressed and a introduction flame present. It takes about 15 secs for it to light. Is this the gas control valve and are they still available?Bill Forster
Optional Information: Make: Kenmore Sears Model: Powermiser 8 Already Tried: Re-lighting pilot when off
