![]() Possible but pretty unlikely, hopefully the tech found the problem.
Every couple of years we see a dryer gas valve that is leaking gas through the valve, it is pretty unlikely because there are 2 valves in series and both have too fail to close to have gas escape.
The dryers I have seen do this were usually stored in very damp conditions unused with the gas line disconnected and moisture got into the valve and corroded the valve seats.
