oven takes over 10 min to start, when up to temp it does not hold that set temp, can drop 100 deg b4 starts heating again. This is a GE gas freestanding oven/range.

Your oven uses a 'hot surface' (glow ignitor) ignition system. On such a system observing what the oven ignitor is doing when the problem is occurring is usually the first step in narrowing down possible troublemakers.

You can read about how common gas oven ignition systems work and the observations and tests necessary to start diagnosing problems with them at the following link:
