Dryer comes on heats up flame burns for around eight minutes then the flame goes out. If I shut it off and wait for it to cool it will come on again and run for another 5 - 10 minutes if I shut it off and try to restart it without cooling I get no flame. Any Ideas?

What you need to do is replace the coils on the gas valve. The secondary coil is bad, and that is why it is only coming on once. The coil kit comes with both coils. It is a cheap, quick, and easy repair. Tom ApplianceEducator.com - Parts
