    A tiny particle of dust in the pilot air mixture assembly can cause poor pilot height. The only advice I feel comfortable giving is turning your gas off, and blowing on(most times with your mouth will be sufficient) the pilot assembly. If you still have issues youll have to call a pro with the proper tools to troubleshoot the problem. Good luck
