Potterton Prima 40 B Boiler pilot light fails to stay on ?

I need to keep this boiler going until I raise enough cash for replacment, once I try to start the pilot light it will not stay on when turned from spark to flame setting.
The spark electrode works and the flame only stays on so long as I have the button pressed in ?

you need a new thermocouple get a universal one usualy sold in most plumbing and gas stockists
