if you have a gas meter, the meter could be bad. I have seen the gas meter not let enough gas go through it to even get the pilot lit. call you local gas company, they will be able to do a pressure test, and will replace the meter if it is bad, otherwise, it could be your thermocouple! : Dear Terry, : I have a gas furnace here in Ohio on Lake Erie. The pilot has gone out five times since I've been home from work. What should I do. I have limited funds so I have to try to fix this myself. Please advise. Thank you. Sulli
