Charles,
Somewhere on your furnace you have a gas valve. That is the thingy
with the main gas pipe going into it. It also has a bunch of wires
going into it. When the sail switch and the thermo switch. Put a long
screwdriver up to the gas valve and place your ear on the end of the
screwdriver. Turn the switch on again and listen for the valve to
open. If it doesn't open then you might have a problem with the sail
switch. You might have a bunch of dust bunnies keeping the sail switch
from working properly. I doubt if it is a gas valve but you never
know. OF

Thanks--you're right, I still have no real idea which part is not
operating correctly. That could help narrow it down.
