Perfect fit for my whirlpool range/oven, but did not solve my problem
This gas valve was a perfect replacement for my whirlpool range/oven (GFG461LVS2). However, it turned out that replacing this part didn't contribute toward solving my problem at all. No fault of the part, which was perfect, hence the 5 star rating.
To hep others that might encounter the same symptoms, I'm posting my experience here:
My symptoms:
Oven bake operation worked for about 20 minutes or so with proper ignition and flame. After 20 minutes, the oven bake flame would ignite and then immediately go out.

Worked like a charm
Product was easy to install. Resolved issue.

Didn't miss a beat!
