Hello.This Exeter made propane stove in the style of a wood-burner is going to be used in a secluded shed.Can anyone explain why it wont fire up.The ignition works,it`s connected up to the bottle and regulator used for my gas stove but the pilot flame extinguishes after releasing the start knob with no burner section lit.Have cleaned out internals but not disassembled anything.Stove arrived on its side,could this have caused a problem?Thanks.

Is this new or used?
Are you sure that you are following the correct procedure for lighting? Do you have the makers instructions?
Some need to be held down to ignite and then turned further whilst still holding them down.

It may be worth double checking that the appliance is an LPG model. It could be Nat Gas?
Check that the pilot light is playing on a bulb shaped device called a thermocouple.....maybe its become dislodged?

Agile,It`s a 2nd-hand stove.The secluded shed bit was for the Elf&Safety brigade .Yes tried starting procedures you mentioned but no luck.I`m going to have to try and track down a makers manual.
DeltaT2,Yes has LPG on the plate.
Burnerman,Good advice,I will check the thermocouple when next in the shed at the weekend and let you know.
Boilerman2,Will it not fire up with a flue pipe fitted???????
rego,The shed is to be kept at a constant temp to cure painted items.
Thanks chaps,keep `em coming.
