Took the left front burner apart to give it a good cleaning. After putting it back together I now have the igniter clicking on both of the front burners when the left front one is on. When the right front one is on, as well as the two back ones, everything is fine. It's pretty obvious that my messing with the left front one caused the issue. As a side note the threaded nut that holds the burner base in place will not tighten because of stripped threads.
Any ideas what the issue might be? My first thought is that maybe there is moisture in the igniter because of my cleaning it up. Second thought is that maybe the stripped threads not allowing the base to be secured is the issue. Any suggestions appreciated.

After some further research it appears that I need to order a new holder with orifice and a new threaded nut to secure things in place. I ordered these same parts about five years ago and found that once I reassembled everything, I had big yellow flames coming out of the burners. Turns out the burner tube had to also be replaced. It appeared to me that the ferrule that attaches the burner tube was a one time use item. Am I correct in that assumption? I'd sure like to order all the right parts the first time and fix everything at once.
Thanks.
