    Many items.
    The gas valve? Is it the correct valve for the unit? Are you sure?
    Did you wire the valve correctly? Did you dubble check?
    Did you turn the new gas valve lever to the on position? Believe it or not I have seen that happen before. Is the thermostat turned all the way up causing the thermostat to call for heat?

    What was the original problem?

    What is the EXACT model number of the unit?
