Yes that does help Jim. Ironically I found the parts looked the same (see my other post). They are swapped. Currently testing on AC. But, your info helps as I know the later models use electronic sparker etc., so wasn't sure where the change to thermostat would have been. Helps to clarify info I posted. Thank you for taking time to look up the parts. Neil.
