Problem
The oven pilot would not stay on.
Tools
Small socket, Phillip screwdriver, small crescent wrench and pliers.
Repair & Advice
I basically had to disassemble the entire stove. I removed the cook top and oven door. Then removed all the screws around the outside on the back, top and front. The bottom plate in the oven has to be removed as well as the the plate on top under the burners and top pilots. Be very careful when installing thermocouple as the ends and copper tubing is easily damaged. This thermocouple is very long (54") so it takes some time to unwrap.

Repair & Advice
When removing the stovetop, hold the base of each burner while disconnecting it as the threads may be fouled. If the burner turns while you are disconnecting it the gas line may be damaged.
