Hey all, I figured maybe someone would find the info useful so I am posting this here. My 87 Escaper water heater ignitor wasn't working so I wanted to get that taken care of. The previous owner put it a new sparker itself, but the problem was in the board. I took the board off and googled the part number and found a few but they were priced at about $150. Upon further research I found a board made by Dinosaur electronics that was supposed to be compatible with my heater. It cost me $55 on Ebay. I had to trim down the rubber piece that covers the part that snaps onto the little sparker thing. I pulled the old board off and plugged everything into the new board and gave it a test. Upon nothing happening I figured maybe the problem was elsewhere, then it hit me! No literally, it shocked the heck out of me. So hey I was happy it worked! I just wasn't aware it had a built in delay. So for $55 bucks it was totally worth the fix and another thing crossed off of my list. Here's a video of it in action. Thanks for the read! Maybe this will help someone out with a similar issue.
