well after thinking about it I realized that if it has a piezo igniter there isn't any pilot light. What I thought was the pilot light was a tiny bit of gas leaking thru the main valve and staying lit. I think the valve wasn't seated all the way closed, which doesn't surprise me because its not been used in over two years.
I've cycled it several time now and the valve is closing " no imaginary pilot light" and no smell of propane.
I checked the fittings with dish soap and water and cannot detect any leaky fittings
I do have a question this should cycle off on its own when the target temp is reached ...how long does that take???
