Most likely the problem is a bad coils on the gas valve. - The part number for the coil kit is AP79737 Here are the break down diagrams for the Speed Queen dryer Model HG6009Gene.

Hi Gene, I have this same problem, same dryer (model HG6009W) however.....the gas ignites into a flame only when the dryer is cold. When you start it up; everything works fine, for about a minute, then the flame shuts off, & the gas valve will no longer supply gas for it to re-ignite. The igniter heats up to bright white hot, but no gas to lite up. (until you let the dryer sit a few hrs to cool off) I tried jumping the t-stat, (@ 2 o'clock of 3" flame tube) but that didn't help. I DIDN'T try jumping the flame sensor AP2910747 (should I?) Or is it definitely the Coil Kit AP79737 (that you suggest in the 10 mo old reply above) You've been a huge help to me in the past on a Microwave (I'm the Volvo Technician) I hope you can help me this time. The coil kit is expensive, & I wouldn't want to buy it unless it was defilitely the offending part. Any way to test it with checking resistance? Thanks, Al

Thanks Leithouse.
Yes, it was the coils. I repaired it in August, shortly after I posted. I bought a OEM coil kit, which I got for a pretty good price (I think it was about $42). So I didn't know which individual coil was bad. But later, I took apart the old coil kit, & individually tested the resistance of each coil & found one to be bad, & the others fine. I now know to test them individually in the future & would be able to replace the offending coil, for about $12 or less.
Thanks
Al
