    You need to take some

    millivolt readings to determine if it is the gas valve or generator or some other resistive cause in the circuit. Does the pilot stay lit? While you are at it clean the pilot.

    What are the numbers

    on the Johnson Gas Valve? Do you even have gas to the valve? Are other gas appliances working? Is this natural gas or propane?
