Check your air duct for a lint clog. This sounds like a air flow problem. Forceful air should be coming out the outside vent. It also should be about 145 degrees. If not check the vent tubing for kinks or clogs. Take the vent tube off and look in the exhaust port of the dryer and make sure its not clogged. If the unit has an internal clog, it will need to be opened and checked.
