gas goes out after 5 mins
i have bought a house and when i lit the pilot it stayed on so i figured the thermocouple was good so i continued to light the fireplace. i ran it on high to help heat the main floor on an especially chilly day but after 5 mins of being on the whole system shut off. it seemed to sputter out. i have decided to try to just have the pilot on and see if it too shuts off . i will post more once it becomes available.

could it be electrical cause sometimes the switch on the side will turn it on and sometimes it wont and if i catch it just right when it goes out i can turn it back on if i flip the on off switch back and forth
