LIMIT SWITCHES/ AND THE GAS CONRTOLER IF I HAVE TOO WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT

I am haveing a problem with my furnace. It works intermetent
Not a furnace guy, and but my troubleshooting tree goes like this
Pop cover off of tstat, cross red & white wires. If furnace comes on, and bad tstat. If it doesn't come in within a minute, bad furnace. Beyond that, I only do electric

Are you able to actually watch and see what is happening? I'm far from a furnace guy but I was having an intermittent problem a couple years back. My furnace would start but fail to fully fire and blow could air about half the times. Ended up being the flame sensor. Took me months to trouble shoot and actually be able to catch the problem when it happened. I kept the cover off so when the problem occured I could run to the furnace and try and see what was going on. Since I'm not a furnace guy I don't know about your furnace but on mine the blower comes on, then a pressure switch opens or closes(don't remember which), then the flame comes on and the flame sensor has to read the flame and then it will kick in full blast. I may be off a little on some of this but it's how I remember mine working and I'm sure all furnaces are different so yours may not work like this. But it's some things to check.
Here's some good articles on this site about furnace trouble shooting, http://www.mobilehomerepair.com/hvac.html

Have you been using a meter to see where or where not you have voltage?
At the gas valve, place 1 meter lead on one of the wires/terminal and the other meter lead on the other wire/terminal. Set your thermostat to call for heat and then check to see if you are getting 24v there. If you are getting 24v across the 2 wires and it's not flowing gas try tapping on it lightly with a wrench or screw driver and if it fires up. If it does or doesn't then it's the valve. If you have don't have 24v then you need to start back tracking from there.
You can replace everything before you get to the valve if you wish but gas valves tend to be on the pricey side. You need to get a meter out if you haven't already and start looking for where you are loosing voltage. It's kinda like shooting in the dark for now until so.
Look at this link for you furnace. It has trouble shooting and a good wiring breakdown to help guide you.
