Very nicely done. I like that you also cleaned up the wiring. Thanks for also including the Why's - some many folks tell there where, what and whens, but not the Why's.

the pilot assembly needs to go at the same location as the old one. Do not modify the location.

Get a knockout punch and a waterproof cable gland and put these things in the blower compartment, not directly above the hood for the ribbon burners that gets up to 500 degrees on a regular basis. First the sticker will wrinkle, then the enclosure itself will deform and then the solder joints inside will start cracking apart and make the valve chatter violently if it ever lights at all.

I just did the same to my hot water natural gas boiler, with Honeywell ignition spark igniter replacement kit.. It works wonderful. The original pilot light sounded like a when I'm braising the torch, I was driving me crazy. Just bought my new house , it has a boiler that is like 30 year old , it runs great good condition but , I just updated and modify with a new ignition Kit.

Can you please post links of the gas valve and ignition kit? Thanks!

Great video thank you. So is it possible to take an existing spark ignition that's obsolete and convert it to a standing piolot using the existing gas valve?

GREAT VIDEO !!! CAN U EXPLAIN PILOT LOCATION FLUID IGNITION VS. MAIN BURNER LOCATION ALSO RESULTING IN LAGGING AND PRODUCING A ROLL OUT FLAME. THX U.

I look to install the pilot hood in the same location as the old setup. That way, we are relying on the engineers of the heating unit to answer that question. Though, i usually install the pilot hood in a manner that leaves the flame 1/2" to 3/4" above the main burner. Test several times to verify proper ignition (One void of any delay to the ignition). Hope this helps, Jeff

thank you for the great video. I'm installing the same kit on a furnace with a 2 wire Carrier pilot burner 732. What pilot burner and hood did you use? My Robertshaw retrofit kit only came with the spark rod.to mount where the thermo-couple normally mounts.

Thanks for the video on this. I had a standing pilot that would randomly go out for no apparent reason in an old (54 years!) boiler. Changed multiple thermocouples and the gas valve and still had issues. The last time I looked to go to a kit like this when I replaced the gas valve about 2 to 3 years ago I could not find anything like this, which I thought was strange. Is this a newer kit? My instructions were copyright 2014.

Robertshaw makes a universal spark ignition retrofit kit.

i am just curious how long have they had this kit available? I did go this route and is working great. I looked for a kit like this 2 or 3 years ago and could not find anything like it.
