Hello all, I have a coleman 70 furnace about 23 years old. My problem,I cannot keep it running.The temp wiil drop below t.stat then I have to drop temp on t.stat then bring it back up,the furnace will start run between 2 sec.-40 sec it will cycle like this between 3 and 10 times.After doing this for a while it will finally it will run,sometimes for days sometimes just once. Any Ideas its now 62 in the house. One other thing if I turn it to manual the blower will come on.

Is the burner staying on?? Is the blower just cycling rapidly?
