But my problem is that it takes multiple times to dry one load of laundry. I have looked it up on other websites and there is not a single clear answer, I have checked the vent, disconnected it from the vent and ran it connected and disconnected and it is still the same. Is there anything I can do? Is there something that I can replace or clean out?

You have do do some diagnostics. You need heat and air flow to get decent drying. Remove the unit from the vent so you can feel the exhaust air. Undo the dryer from the exhaust If you do not want lint in the house. Take a pair of pantyhose, put one leg into the other and attach this to the dryer exhaust. Leave enough room behind the dryer so it can blow out like a windsock. Start it up. Do you have good air flow? Does changing the temp selector change the temp of the exhaust air? Is the exhaust temp hot on a high temp setting? Running on air only is the heater still coming on? Does the timer advance in both timed dry and auto cycle types? Here is a good site with basic dryer repair help http://www.applianceaid.com/dryers.html Note your Roper is probably a Whirlpool.
