One of the 4 igniter's works poorly.

It could be simple enough. You remove the black metal difuser plate, then remove the 2 screws holding the gas dispersing unit down. My problem started here, when the screw striped. I drilled the screw out thinking I could get on it after to extract the rest. That did not work. Then once I flipped over the unit to remove the one small screw holding in the spark ignition electrode, that rusted screw also stripped. No repair, I put it back together with the old electrode still in place and the one good screw i was able to remove and will continue using a lighter to light the burner.
