I have a natural gas shop heater in my garage. Lately the pilot light has been going out; happened three times in the last couple of weeks. The first couple of times, I restarted it in the normal way - turn power off, set switch to "pilot", press and hold button, ignite pilot and continue holding button for a minute after which the pilot stays on. This latest time, the pilot will not stay lit. It stays on as long as I hold the button, but as soon as I release it it goes out (even after holding the button in with a bar clamp for over 10 minutes). Any ideas on the source of the problem?
