    Furnace burner shuts off too quickly
    We have a payne gas furnace that is approx. 14 years old. The burner ignites, burns for about 10 seconds and then the blower kicks on and blows for about three minutes. The process then repeats itself. We have already tried a new thermostat, to no avail. Any suggestions as to what could be causing the problem?

    Does your furnace have a 3 wire pilot?

They fire up, but only stay on for about 3 to 8 seconds, then the blower turns on but only puts out cold air. I don't think it's an ignitor problem because the burner always ignites. It just started doing...
