The New World seventy-six cooker I have needs the taps / knobs lubricating - I saw something on a previous post suggesting gss c*ck grease. Is this the stuff, and is it straightforward to dismantle and re-grease them? A gas engineer I spoke to muttered darkly about carbon monoxide and said any engineer would charge =A3100 to come out and then slap a condemned label on it to cover himself. I like the cooker but like life more - should I think of scrapping it for safety? The flame on one burner was a little yellow, to I closed what I took to be an air inlet screw on the cast iron pipe leading to it - this improved it but even fully tightened the flame is still a little yellow. Would re- greasing the taps help this - and should I be in there at all? Thanks for advice. Peter
