Pilot light won't stay lit

I have a Heil furnace, about 12 years old with a standing pilot light. It went out so I tried to relight it to no avail. I have since changed the thermocouple to a new one, but it still won't stay lit. I light the pilot with the red button pushed down and hold it for 2-3 minutes (longer than the 1 min. recommended), but as soon as I let go of the red button the flame automatically shuts off like it is not getting any gas anymore. Any ideas? Any idea what it will cost? Thanks so much!
