I have a Broadway Marine Gas Stove aboard my new boat. Well it's quite old really.

The thermocouplings are playing up. Whilst in
used the flame will go out at random. At least I think it's the thermo couplings as I know very little about it.

I have the manual but but it is not very helpful and the contact phone number is deceased. Likewise Google. The wooden boat forum affirms that contacting the manufacturer is a mission.

Does anyone have any advice? I am game to replace them myself unless advised otherwise.

Since Cisco posted that video of the yacht going sky high I've become a little paranoid about going the same way!

Japie, the obvious question is, are all the burners playing up ? Generally speaking thermocouplings give trouble lighting the burner ( you know lift ya finger off the bypas and the f** goes out. bit different for a fridge though )
Think I've got the same stove, I recon the parts will be standard gas fittings as I believe the stoves where made in Ballina and I'm sure they wouldn't of been manufacturing all the vital bits.
Replacement should be straight forward, just check for gas leaks. Those crazy poms in the video tried all day to blow that boat up and resorted to putting the bottles in the cab, full open !

When I used to teach gasfitting at tafe I had to explain both density and flammability limits. One of the examples I gave was pouring lpg from the first cup down to the fourth and throwing a match in each. Kids loved it.

Interesting Saltiest, how about a bit more detail.

You just need a very still environment and a few deep cups and pour slowly into each one. Really simple.
Specific gravity of lpg is 1.55 opposed to sea level air of 1.00. Pretty heavy stuff.

Don't lose your eyebrows.

Now that's cool.

Check if the flame is striking the metal rod the same for both and how clean they are might make a differance.
