Rough start with burning smell, need fix.
I have an older Whirlpool dryer and some things about to give. If I try to start a second load within 2 mins of the last one ending I hear it trying to turn but it struggles instead and produces a burning smell. If I wait for it to cool off it usually starts normally, but I can tell it's struggling more day by day. Seems like the start relay or something called the centrifugal switch. I would like to have a plan and maybe a part in hand before I go in for a closer look.

Big success, needed a new motor and had to break the old blower wheel to install it (as expected). It's so quiet and quick to start now. Thanks for the help.
