Stove teardown.
I fired up the stove and oven to see if they worked and they do, quite well actually. It’s just dirty and rusty. I took out the burners, valves and the bottom plate. Lightly soda blasted the valves and burners. Stripped the paint off the bottom and sanded, sealed with Coroseal and painted with black appliance paint. I used automotive polish and wax to buff the paint. Then I used Food grade machine oil to wipe down all the valves, burners and the entire oven to keep it from rusting. Oh I also used 00 Steel wool on the chrome. Afterwards I reassembled everything and tested again. The top burners work better and the oven lights up once the pilot is lit BUT the oven doesn’t shutdown at the correct temp. In fact I had it set at 200f and it got to 700 before I turned the knob to off to turn it off. After some research from my favorite Facebook group it was determined to be a bad temp switch/regulator/thermocouple/or whatever you call it. Basically the bits behind the oven temp knob. I did try and remove the copper thermocouple from the valve and this is most likely what messed it up. there is a set distance that has to be set at to turn off the gas when it reaches temp and I have no idea what that was set to before. So I’ll have to get a new/used one. At least the oven looks great now!
