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

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
