I put in a new thermostat and am having an issue

When I test heat/cooling the fan does come on but the heat takes 30 seconds or more to start then it runs for 10 seconds or so and shuts off for 20-30 seconds.
It may shut off twice then finally turns on and stays on until the temp is correct.
It is gas furnace made by lennox. Any ideas?

Was it running fine with the old thermostat?

yeah the old one worked as long as we did not want to change the temperature.
I have already went and swapped the new one for another new one.
Both new ones act the same but are the same model!

So a new model maybe in order!

See you skip a year of getting in cleaned and find out you needed it. The Flame Sensor was dirty :)
Now the new thermostat and furnace are working correctly.
