Hello All, Please help. I have 2 gas lights flanking my driveway but I cannot seem to get gas to them. I have located the supply from the house and opened the gas valve on the lamp post (1/4 turn open) but no gas. I am almost positive the venturi tube and orifice need to be removed an cleaned but I don't know how to do it. If I put a wrench on the tube the valve spins. My question is how do I clamp the valve inside the lamp post so I can spin the burner tube off?

I want all light exiting upwards from the lamp shade to point down. Do I just buy a mirror and put it on top of the lamp shade? Then the mirror can reflect down any light. But is this safe? I use a fluorescent light bulb, but it still heats up! I don't want a fire hazard.
