mike H asked:


I cannot get the pilot lit on my gas water heater. it is the type that you remove outer door, set temp to low, set dial to pilot, press pilot button and press striker. I see spark in the little window but it will not light. I do not smell any gas (maybe due to inner door). my Q is can I remove the inner door and light it the old fashion way?
