Most new dryers run ABOUT 135-150 degrees at the outlet, some of the older ones ran as hot as 165degrees. This is NO vent hose, NO cloths!!!! If its over these # replace the CYCLING THERMOSTAT!!!!!

So, if I'm running about a 5 year old amana, and it's at about 180 and cycling down to 130 the cycling thermostat is faulty?

If its 180, your very close to having a FIRE!!!!!!!!! If the airflow is good and your sure the vent is clear, then replace the thermostat.

Default Element
The element for the dryer is at 10 ohms, is that the right amount?

I believe so. check the cycling thermostat, It should limit the heat to about 150 or less!!!!!
