I have no problem liting the pilot, and when I turn up the thermostat the burner fires up. Within seconds of the burnners firing up, the the gas seems to cut off, and the burnners and pilot go out. Whats the deal? Any suggestions would be helpful. :wall:

1st off if you have a conventional pilot try replacing the thermocouple. Make sure the pilot is strong and hitting it good and solid.
