Oven pilot won't light!!

Has anyone had an oven pilot light that wouldn't light after winter storage?
This is the first time our's has failed and I'm in uncharted territory as to how to trouble shoot the problem.

I've already bled all the air out of the lines and have gas to all the other appliances including the top burners on the stove.

Suggestions and/or fixes would be greatly appreciated.

TC,

Even after using the topside burners and the oven, the oven pilot can be a dickens to light. I find that turning the oven gas valve to pilot and then pushing the valve in for 20 to 30 seconds usually will light the pilot. That being said, it has sometimes taken me as much as 45 seconds to get the thing lit.

I agree, it can be a job getting it to let after sitting all winter with the LP off. My unit has all the LP items are the rear of the trailer, so it takes forever to purge the air and get things burning.

This one is fixed.

I had to hold the knob in longer than normal, but it finally lit! Thanks for the tip gang.
