What makes your gas range burners to go poof when you turn them on?

When gas begins to flow from the pressurized manifold through the valve that has just been turned on, it begins mixing with air in a "space" called a venturi. The gas and air are flamable, but the mix has yet to be ignited. The gas/air mixture "tumbles" along in the delivery conduit until it comes out the little holes in the burner itself. Recall it is yet unignited. The fuel/air mix reaches the piezoelectric (spark) ignitor or the pilot light, and the "ready-to-go" mix is suddenly ignited. The flame front quickly travels back along the outrushing mixture until the "flame base" is established at the little holes in the burner itself. That "backward rushing" flame front leaving the ignition source is moving very quickly. The fuel/air mixture burns so fast it actually creates a mini-explosion, and the shockwave makes the poof! as the burner comes on.

Locate the egulator on top at right of burners, just before the connection, unscrew the regulator top and turn it over, then check your gas orifices to burners, they should be #64 not #57 on some models, look up conversion kits for your model and get them, then go to regulator on bottom of oven and turn that tight in. Should do it.

Color of flame in a complete combustion of gas from Bunsen burner?
When the air hole is covered on the Bunsen Burner its oxygen supply is made smaller. This makes the flame turn YELLOW - This is considered to be the safety flame as it is the most visible to the eye and it radiates less heat. When the Bunsen burners air hole is fully open there is a super heated blue flame which is the product of complete combustion. Hope this helped :)
