Hi,I'm looking for a replacement for a W-R 36C61 gas valve.It is from a Raytec shop heater.I emailed W-R now Emerson and they couldn't help me.It has a 24 volt solenoid and a pilot tube and nothing else.Any ideas of what I can use to replace this?

Thanks,Greg

    Does the valve have

    a thermocouple attached to the valve? If so it is a 24 volt standing pilot gas valve and can be replaced by a Honeywell series VR8300A-4516.
