glowworm 75p ingition wont fire up pilot light

[webby4185]

please help my glowworm 75p works for a few days then with out warning decideds to switch it self off then when i go to try to re-light the pilot light it wont kick in but when it does and you let the button out on the gas value it just wont hold after a lot of trys it will fire up and like i said last a few days then same problem i thought it might be a thermocouple breaking down but not sure any other ideas from your members would be a great help

Never heard of a Gloworm 75p.Maybe thats all its worth.
It does sound like a t/couple though.

Sounds a bit like a partially blocked Pilot Injector.
