I have a Kenmore series 80 gas dryer that heats up and runs for about 10 minutes then shuts everything down. I can wait 30-40 minutes and restart with same results. Any information would be great!

Make sure your dryer vent pipe is clear, the lint screen is clean and that the wall opening is not below snow or jammed shut. The dryer is overheating and the safety is shutting it down. That's why you can restart it after a time. Most cases like this are caused by an obstructed or blocked vent.
