Help adjusting burner flame height -- Wolf AS30KI.

Hello, All,

I have a 1997 Wolf stove (Model # AS30KI) which I�ve just installed into my new kitchen. The stove was given to me by a friend, converted from liquid propane (LP) to natural gas (NG) and professionally installed. The conversion to NG was done professionally, and I have no reason to think that anything was done wrong. Both the oven and broiler work just fine.

The trouble that I�m having is with the burners (see the picture here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/grahe/7289233882/in/photostream). When the burner is turned on, and the flame is set to high, the flame reaches ~6-8 inches above the stove top. The flame on the left two burners is tipped yellow/ orange.

The outer burner head, or (�flame spreader�), seems to be have a flame coming out of each �hole� -- (it looks as I�d expect). At the inner burner head (flame spreader), the flame appears to go right around the burner head -- it does not go through the holes in the burner head (this does NOT look like I�d expect).

See this picture for an image of the flame: http://www.flickr.com/photos/grahe/7289233882/in/photostream

Here�s what I�ve tried so far:

â The professional installation crew (also a stove repair outfit) suggested that the holes in the burner head (flame spreader) needed to be cleaned carefully. I used a finishing nail and cleaned out each hole, and then washed the burner heads in cold water.

â I�ve set the �air shutter� to the correct setting, following the instructions here: http://www.ehow.com/video_12231528_adjust-gas-valve-range.html

Any idea on what may be going wrong?

Thanks in advance for all of your help!
