It sounds like it's overheating.
Find and clean the filter.
The noise might be something caught between the drum and the mechanism. A bra underwire is common if your female (anonymous)?)
Check with a good torch...
If you rotate the drum and it squeaks it's something jammed or maybe the bearing.

10 min. run time

Sounds like the vetilation hole in the gas cap is plugged, so fuel feeding out pulls a slight vaccuum in the tank. Flow stops until some air leaks in. Clean the cap or leave it loose.

I have a used GE DCLR333ETOAA model and last time was used it work for few mins. but smell like burn and then stop working. What you think it is?

If the machine quit and won't restart, I would be looking at the drum belt. Some machines will not start if the belt is broken. If the smell you are getting is more electrtical than a rubber smell you need to be checking the thermostats and make sure the venting from the back of the dryer to the outside is not full of lint because the safety thermostat will shut the dryer down so it doesn't overheat.

89 regal won,t start but after 5 or 10 min. runs great

sounds like your fuel pump is going out. One thought might be that the fuel filter is causing enough resistance to over heat the pump. I would check the fule pressure to determine a free flow of fuel.

Loud buzz when starting, then shutting down after 10 min.

Yes, this sounds like the motor cutting out on thermal lockout.

Dryer shutting off too early. Faint smell of something burning?

Check the vent for clogging condition that will turn off unit and cause it to overheat. If vent goes up to roof check up there also - that is where mine was clogged with a sort of paper mache clog!!!!!
