When the dryer first stats it makes a funny noise. within 10 seconds or so it shuts off automacticly and smells like something is strting to burn. anyhelp with this would be great.

Well It was the motor. Getting it out was a bear!!! I couldnt get the fan off for nothing. So i broke out the Sawzall. Cut the shaft off. But after researching more I found that this was common and the solution to removing the fan was to give it a good whack with a big hammer and bust it off.

a couple of other things to note... The burning smell was the motor. I also found a small green spring on the floor of the dryer. It was from the motor.
It was attached to what i believe was a safety switch on the motor. The clasp it was attached to had broken off.

So I Ordered a new motor and fan/blower from Appliance Parts Pro on a Tuesday night at 10pm and recieved the parts Thursday at 12 noon.

Put everything back together.....Everything runs Perfect. :)

I spent $96 w/S&H and a little elbow grease (2hours) I wonder how much i saved from D.I.Y.

p.s. Before I replaced the motor I did vaccum and air hose everything clean. I thought maybe Lint was the burning smell and causing something to overheat but regardless I stiil had the problem.
