There should be a thermal cut-off in the connection to thermostat. it has a plastic sleeve over it. pay attention to where that wire connects at thermostat, and carefully remove it from the male spade connector at thermostat. Now remove the entire thermal cut-off from other end of wire as well. Now take that wire end (female spade) and connect it directly to thermostat where the cut-off was connected. Try lighting and running heater now. If heater works, replace thermal cut-off. That is a safety device in case of flame up from spider webs etc clogging burner tube, so don't leave it out. Problem with that is that it is only a 1 time cut-off, and needs replace each time . Let me know if that cures running problem.

removed thermal coupler and have same problem removed thermal coupler and have same problem

While switching on, use probe of test light (12VDC) or multimeter and touch connector where wires connect to gas valve and light should light up, or meter should read 12 volts when you hear water heater going through ignition cycle. If voltage is there and no gas delivered to ignite, try tapping valve with screwdriver handle in case valve is stuck. If still no flow of gas, replace gas valve. If you listen very close you should be able to hear a slight click, or feel with finger tip when valve is energized and opening.
