ok if the pilot is going before you hold it down this could be the problem

1. are you following the equipment lighting instructions correctly?

2. are u sure you have corrrect gas flow to the unit

if all these are correct than it sounds like a gas valve is bad'

or worst case a drafty flue

What does the pilot flame look like ?? Is it strong and blue ?? If it's short and weak, I'd start with removing the pilot assymbly and cleaning the tube and pilot assymbly.
