    Glow Worm Micron 30FF Slight Yellowing Of Flame?

    I have a Glow Worm Micron 30FF and I cleaned the burner today. When I fired it up there was some slight yellowing of flames but is that normal? The other thing was the whole of the burner didn't light until I gently blew on the flames, I thought maybe this was due to the cover plate being off?
