Gas Oven does not reignite after preheat

My oven will preheat fine. However, after successfully preheating, the oven will not maintain temperature.
I hear noises. clicking and I think natural gas flow, but I don't smell gas or or hear the "flumphhh" of gas igniting. The cycle will continue at least 3 or 4 times when I shut the oven off.

Is there more than one igniter, gas valve, or flame sensor?

Whirlpool built gas range ovens not maintaining temperature is a fairly common problem. To repair that problem, I most commonly replace the WP9758079 spark igniter. Sometimes the WP9758078 burner also needs to be replaced if the spark igniter doesn't do the job. Lastly, the WPW10331686 DSI module sometimes get weak.

I bought the Bake Igniter, mostly cause it $10 delivered tomorrow. If it does not work, Ill continue down the line. Thanks!

The bake ignitor fixed the problem. Full explanation for future searchers: As temperature increases, so does electrical resistance. The ignitor was strong enough at room temp, but not at cooking temp.
