Easy-ish fix to a pilot that won't stay lit

Would Recommend

Pilot light wouldn't stay lit on my ten year old 40 gallon water heater, ran out to Lowe's to get a replacement thermocouple. It was a bit tricky getting the burner assembly out to work on it, but I figured it out. This thermocouple wire is a few inches shorter than the one it replaced, so I had to improvise (it looks like an amateur homeowner fix), but it works.

Repeated thermocouple replacement indicates a different problem.

We recommend contacting the manufacturer of your water heater for assist...

Worked with my Weil McLain Gold CGS boiler

Would Recommend

We had no hot water, and have noticed, my pilot light went out, on my boiler, and would not stay on. Replaced my 7 year old thermocouple, with this one, and it worked. I had to reuse my previous, screw on adapter, since this new one, did not include it.

Works

Would Recommend

The clip that is provided did not work for me the shape is not straight and too big I was not willing to drill my water heater bracket to make it fit I ended up reusing the old clip.

The theromocouple in my 15 year old water heater quit. I bought this one to replace it and it works perfectly. Not sure what else can be said.
