try cleaning the heat sensor that that hangs in front of the flame, sounds like it is not detecting the flame and shuts off,  mine does that from time to time and I just take it out and clean it with some sand paper and it works fine then.  They get a coating over time on the surface of the sensor.  Hope this helps

I have a gas furnace that runs on 110v and a 5000w generator. I have disconnected the furnace from the house and installed a 110v plug. When I plug the furnace in the small burner blower works and the large blower fan runs. The trouble is that the burner will light but goes out a few seconds later. Has anyone had this trouble? How did you fix it. > BTW: I use digest mode and will get your answers faster if you reply directly to me. > > Thanks> _________________________________________________________________> Windows Live™: E-mail.
