Drier set on Perm press you start it after awile it turns off clothes still wet . There is heating time still left on selector. If you let it sit for several minutes it will restart, and run somemore sometimes finishing cycle. Had a repairman look at it said needed a new motor $300.00 plus said just buy a new drier. Times are tough is motor problem I will put in myself?

The symptoms are symptomatic of a motor failing. Given the age of your machine and the cost and difficulty of putting in a new motor and the likelihood of something else failing I think the advice to replace the machine is good. In our area you can get a nice, no frills dryer on sale for around $300 to $325 and sometimes less, and that is what I would advise you to do.
