I have a Sears Kenmore Range (model 362.73288890) which is about 9 years old. When the oven is on, it sounds like the burner is cutting in and out making a slight popping sound. According to the parts diagram, there are a couple of valves that I think may be causing the problem. There is a pressure regulator valve and a control valve. Would either of these valves cause the burner to cut in and out if it were defective?

More than likely this is your problem..Part Details - GE Igniter, oven, part number: WB13K21

You can take an ohm reading to verify if it is bad or not, this glowbar should read between 50-150ohms, if not its bad, and will cause the problem you describe.
