Flames were coming out from under the burners. The bottom of burner was rusted
I ordered the two replacement burners. When they arrived I equipped myself with WD-40 spray, rubber mallet and a rubber gripper I used to use to open canning jars. Sprayed the WD-40 around the burner base and let it sit for 20 minutes. Made a mental note of the location of the sparker of the burner, to remember to put the new one in the same way. Gathered my courage and gently wacked the burner with the mallet all around it. Then grabbed the burner with the gripper and gave it a firm ¼ circle twist counter clockwise. It came apart with no problem. Disconnected the two electric wires by slipping them off their sockets. Removed all the loose rust and cleaned around the burner. Reconnected the wires with the new replacement burner and dropped it in its place. Wiggled it a little until it fit back into its original location and twisted it ¼ circle clockwise. Done, just saved myself the price of a new stove! Note: There is no need to shut off the main gas valve.

burners wouldn't light
First, only replaced the electrodes for lighting the stove burners. Nope, that wasn't the problem. Then replaced the burners -- that was the problem. Easy fix -- to bad I had to buy the electrodes first. Parts came in just a couple of days. Really surprised about how fast the parts shipped.

Burners were not working properly. They had rusted out.
First I turned the burner head counter clockwise, lifted it out and pulled the connectors off. Then I connected the connectors back on the prongs of the new burner head and placed it back on the gas line and turned the burner head clockwise. I then turned the pilot light and and tested the connection. It worked without any problems. I then proceed to replace the second burner head using the same steps as on the first burner head.

2 burners rusted apart, 1 gas valve frozen up.
Removed burner pan screws,igniters, gas tubes & burners. Changed 2 igniters, removed rust & repainted ends of 2 of the tubes (heatproof paint). New burners were made a hair smaller than original but locked in O.K...Now, the hard part...disconnected all four tubes from gas valve assembly. (Had to shut off gas to house in order to remove main gas line to stovetop.) Had to remove valve box in order to remove/replace frozen valve. Unit is 25 years old, works as and looks new...Rust was caused by boil-overs.

Broke the insulator on the ignitor while cleaning the cooktop.
Unscrew the bottom cover, remove the old ignitor. Reverse the process to install. Hardest part was getting the bottom cover screws out because of rust. Otherwise, very simple.
