old stove igniter replacement on a budget

any reason that a pizeo eletric igniter can not light 2 burners by putting a spark gap on each end keeping the igniter ground isolated if both spark gaps are grounded it seems to ignite both burners readily and reliably the stove is not the one listed above but an old choleric the only other eletrical item on the stove is a clock and timer purely mechanical except for a small motor to spin the device and ring the bell nothing shock sensitive
