My stove is about 35 years old. I never was able to locate the model
number. One of the eyes went out, and I have been using only 3 for
years.

Well my dryer went out, so I called the repairman. He came out and
fixed the dryer, so I had him look at the stove. He said the control
rheostat was bad and they don't make them anymore.

True?
Likely. Should have fixed it 3 years ago - MIGHT have been available
then.
