I’ve noticed my electric dryer has been putting out a kerosene smell lately. When I open the door as it’s running I smell it quite strongly. I haven’t noticed any transfer to clothing though.

I have done some woodworking in the area recently so I was thinking some wood dust got in around the intake so I did take the back off and vacuum the whole thing out. Will this go away in a bit or is there more I need to do?

Bingo! Yes, it will go away on its own.
