Thanks myob for assuring me that the knockoff part would be suitable. I swapped out the old igniter (that does not protrude from the housing) and it's all good. My oven did not look like any in the videos, lol. I could have used the one w/ the clip but I was able to marry the new wires to the old. Took less than 45 minutes. Hardest part was getting the door back on properly. The extra part will get returned today.

your welcome. As I tell my kids and employees-- I started working things mechanical in 1961 at 11. The summer of 61 I cleaned pans in my fathers bakery from May 20 to Sept 7-- memorial day to labor day. (no days off) Got paid 20.00 a week and could keep 5. The rest went into the bank to pay my HS tuition (200.00). 1962 at 12 I was allowed to work nights from 7pm to finish at 9 or 10am. Weekends and holidays it was till noon in the bakery. 1964 my father brought a rental house 1bd 1 ba with detached garage. AKA a bungalow. No heat no AC.

I've got a horde of knowledge about things mechanical and can make baked goods from Kaiser rolls, butter cookies, all the way to German (real German) pound cake) After the bakery closed I went to work as a labor for the park service on fire Island for the summer painting and building boardwalks over sand dunes. Winter worked as an orderly 2nd shift 3 to 11. Also worked general aviation servicing small planes. One winter I worked at Billy Blakes in the pet department in Middle Island LINY.. When I was 16 I got my first car. A 1950 Merc-- flat head 8. Put huge shackles on the back because I didn't look enough like an idiot just driving the "gray Ghost". 16/17 I had a chance to play football on a part scholarship but my school principle and athletic director refused to send my transcripts needed to apply. BTW lettered in 3 sports 3 different years. Saying I was not college material.

Joined the Navy at 17. I worked planes engines and all the systems and sheet metal I could for 40 yrs. In 86 we started buying rentals.
