I have adjusted the burners so that they are now blue, no orange. I don't think that the oven is supposed to normally give off excessive CO. Improper combustion as I have experienced, has left a nice layer fo black soot all throughout the range. The layer is about 1/8" thick. The level of CO this range gives off is nowhere near normal. The smell from a gas range is not supposed to be smelled throughout the house and eye/nose burning! I should have kept my old oven. Sure, it was around 30 yrs old, the door didn't quite shut, the oven temp was off, and the occasional relighting the pilots. I could live with that. Not a $600 stove that should have been thrown from a moving truck back into the Sears parking lot.
