Gas Range - Yellow Flames or Soot on Top Burners

If you are using LP (liquid propane) gas as your fuel source and your gas flame is fully yellow, or if you have a buildup of soot or carbon around your burners, this is usually a problem with air flow or gas pressure, "bad" gas, or the orifices need to be changed.
