Propane air lock?
Curt,

Everything "clicks" correctly and the spark works. There is simply no gas
coming out of the burners. Just after I bought the coach and drove to to SoCal
from Missouri, I experienced the same thing on the trip out since it had been
sitting. It's worked flawlessly on our trips and through daily living. But, I
put it in storage for five days and now it doesn't want to let the gas flow to
the burners.

Airlock? Some electric valve not working? It worked fine on the fridge.
