I cleaned the flame sensor and replaced glow rod. All steps proceed as normal until the burners are lit. There are three and the first two stay burning but the third starts and then shuts down quickly. This is the one in front of the flame sensor. I have disassembled and cleaned out Each of the burners and the flame sensor. It worked for 24 hours then quit again and is doing the same thing. Is it something on the manifold that can be cleaned / replaced?
2nd question -looking at venting. It comes off top of furnace slopes upward connection with water heater and continues sloping upward to ceiling but is then blocked by subfloor at end. I know it's blocked cause I have removed all carpet from upstairs above it in prep for getting new flooring. It is under a hall closet. Should it be open? There is a lot of white crystallization on the vent that drips down onto and into furnace.
