Can the older pilot lite furnace be converted to electronic pilot.

They make a "conversion kit" for the hot water tanks. The "kit"
for those, contain the module and electric valve, etc, but why
bother? There's less headaches with the pilot type.

The module is around $150 and the valve around $40. You
can buy a used 30k btu electronic ignition heater for around $100.
That's exactly what I did.
