I haven't, but.... I do know that disconnecting the vacuum hose is usually a good idea on any stove unless you like buying vacuum switches. I've been eying the $60 Toro at Home depot myself, but may spring for a lithium ion unit if I keep my patience. (I do clean my stove WAY more than I need to lol)
yep, good idea to discon the tube going to the switch.......hey, I keep em in stock, anyways......not terribly uncommon for folks to clean their unit and it suddenly wont feed.......go figure...
