Greetings, Well it has been about a year and a half and I put the heater back on the bench. I spayed some lubricant on the fan shaft and the fan spun freely. I plugged it in and the thing ignited so I unplugged it and put it back together. Then when I plugged it in it wouldn't work, it just...

Greetings, I have a old 50,000 BTU Heater SEARS, it won't start when I plug it in. I took the cover off to see if I could see anything obvious and there wasn't. When I plug it in the end of the spark plug glows red and the little safety switch button will pop out after a few seconds. Anyone...

Thanks guys for you replies. Gary
