Whirlpool with a true sparker. Broiler burner at the top starts no problem. Eventually I got the problematic sparker working by fiddling with the sparker. Literally bending the housing a bit to alter the gap distance.

Nice! I did that as well when I used to repair them for a living. The spark would sometimes arc to the ignitor guard rather than the burner tube. Now, bake some cookies.
