The pilot light on my Myson economist boiler keeps blowing out!?

The pilot light on my Myson economist boiler keeps blowing out! As soon as release the gas button it goes out! Any help would be great as its freezing in here!

you need to get the end of the thermocouple really hot.i used a blow lamp,then should be ok

The likely cause is going to be the thermocouple. Its a cheap device that you could with a little bit of care replace yourself.

You will need your make and model in order to get a replacement.

Good luck
