Hello,

We've just bought a flat that has a gas cooker and gas heaters (these
have not been used for 2 years).
I tried to light the cooker yesterday, the gas is turned on and is
making a noise from the one ring on the hob i tried, but this flow of
gas blows out anything I try to light it with (lighter, matches etc).

We plan to get the heaters checked out before use, but I assumed I
could light the cooker.

Could this be air in the pipes?

I only tried to light the cooker for about 2 minutes and I got a bit
paranoid that I'd blow myself and the neigbours up

Any ideas?

cheers
