45/60 is an old appliance pre/depletion days.Almost certainly t/couple.

weak yellow flame-should be sharp and blue=blockage in pilot assembly or;
faulty thermocouple(metal pin the pilot is supposed to heat)requires replacing or;
fault on main gas valve-the other end of thermocouple connects here or;
worst case you have a o.d.d sensor(oxygen depletion device) indicating a possible problem with the flue or main burner!

Dont play with gas... call an engineer
