Hi all! I have my mom's old Kenmore gas dryer model # 110.87573110. It has never had an issue until this past week. I used it this past Wednesday to dry a couple loads in the morning and no issue. I dried a load that evening and when it went to light it was making almost a chugging noise. I removed the bottom and watched it. The ignitor clicked and came on but the gas seems to be coming out in spurts. It reminds me of a blow torch running out of fuel. I ran it again today and seemed to be a little better. It is drying the clothes fine and doesn't appear to be leaking gas. I don't know much about how it works to be honest and it's been reliable. Any ideas as to the problem would be appreciated. I can take a video and send it to someone if they want to see it in action. Thanks!
