I ran out of propane, got it refilled, and now the kitchen stove and the propane heater will not stay lit?

You have to bleed the air out of the gas lines. Have somebody who knows how to do it, light it for you. Otherwise you could burn yourself.

Air? I don't know where these people think that air gets in the system. It is a sealed system.

You might have some butane in the lines. A small amount of butane can be in the bottom of the main tank and when you run it down it can pull in to the lines. Butane burns more blue than propane so if the flame is very blue that is the problem.

But it shouldn't take long to relight your pilot. I suspect something else is going on, like a weak or dirty pilot.

I have also seen where a thermocouple may be weak or a valve and not show up until it is shut off then won't hold open, relight, again.

Good Luck

Out Of Propane

Should be no problem you will have a mixture of propane and air that will need to be bled or burned through. A good propane company would have done that for you.

I have only been a gas man for 38 years,,u have air in the line,u can bleed most of it out at the top bnrs on the range,,,lite the wh pilot and turn on bnr it should bleed most of air out ,,u may have to do this severel times,,,,good lluk

When you run out you get air in the lines, hold the pilot button down longer then try to light it
