Question Kenmore (GE) Oven Problems
Brand: Kenmore
Model Number: 362.7599001
Age: 1 - 4 years

When oven is turned on the igniter comes on and starts flame (takes a while longer to flare up then the separate broiler at the top of the oven). Once the flame is started the flame flares up and down (almost goes off) continuously until the oven is pre-heated. Obviously it takes a while to the get the oven pre-heated with the flame constantly cycling up and down (stays high for about 2 seconds then goes to almost off for about 2 seconds). Then once pre-heated the same thing happens if the oven has to flare up again to heat back to set temp. while oven is being used. Any ideas?

This sounds like a problem with the valve.

You should have it checked out by a qualified gas technician.
