In my guesthouse, the gas furnace keeps going out.  I'm getting the 
feeling that the thermocoupler is bad.  (the unit that the pilot light 
burns on to keep the gas flowing.

My questions are, (since I've never worked on gas equipment.)

1- is there a way to test this first?

2-is the replacement a universal unit, or are the thermocouplers specific 
to the furnace?

3-is replacing these simple?  (just remove the old one and place in the 
new one.)

TIA
