Do I have to shut the gas off before replacing the Gas valves? My reg does not have a shut off valve on it. I must shut off my hot water heater as its also feed the dryer. But I really don't want to do that as the hot water tank bills up condenstions and when I go to lite it , it blow back into my face. THANKS JEROME.

If you are just replaceing the 2 coils on the gas valve, you do not have to shut off the gas. If you were to replace the whole gas valve, you would. Tom ApplianceEducator.com

Hello Tom,
That did the trick. It works fine now. Too bad I bought those other parts and that wasn't the problem. The gas valves did it. I'm happy now. Thanks again.
Jerry
