    1986 Kenmore 80 Series Spin Problem

    I haven’t gotten the spin problem fixed yet. I am going to replace the tub support with the bearing and seal kits installed. Hopefully this is the problem as the inner tub is really tight to spin by hand. It has went to not spinning at all no matter if I help it or not. The agitator will spin...

    1986 Kenmore 80 Series Spin Problem

    Hey everyone. I have been having issues with my 1986 Kenmore 80 series washing machine. It fills, agitates, and neutral drains, but when it gets to the spin cycle it just hums. If i give it a spin by hand it try’s to spin but stops. Then other times will spin but not as fast as normal then slow...

    1962 GE Frost Guard Refrigerator

    Hi David quick question. Thought of you today, would you be interested in trying to get this old compressor running after i replace it? Would be really neat if you were able to bring life back to it if you were interested. Evan

    1962 GE Frost Guard Refrigerator

    Hey John, how much would you ask for one of your used GE compressors? In case the 240 trick doesn’t work I will need one to get this fridge going. Thank you for your help. Thank you David for your advice as well.

    1962 GE Frost Guard Refrigerator

    David, yes you are right it is the Supco 3-1 same as the picture you sent me. This one is for 1-4-1/3 ho compressors. Indirect tested several times and only get a hum quickly then it trips the overload. I waited for reset and tried several more times thinking I may get it to start. No such luck...

    Ok David Supco is on, with the direct test compressor hums quickly trips the overload and I have to wait for reset. Compressor must be stuck pretty good. Anything else to try or have a bought a money pit? I try not to get discouraged. Evan

    1962 GE Frost Guard Refrigerator

    Well David the Frigidaire takes hours to get to correct temperature. Then continues to run, I have not witnessed it cycle yet. I’ve replaced the thermostat and given it a charge of r12. Still getting the same results, 4 hours after turning it on it gets down to 13 on the cold plate. I left it...

    1962 GE Frost Guard Refrigerator

    John thank you, I thought i had read that on here in my searches. It does look like there was a tag attached to the line with a twist tie at some point. The twist tie is still there and the line has a piercing valve installed so I do think it has been replaced before. Before i try connecting...

    1962 GE Frost Guard Refrigerator

    I did order a Supco 3 in 1 for the 1/4-1/3 horsepower compressor. I hope this helps it start. Once it is up and running should I switch back to the regular relay and thermal switch? I do see on your chart it is a step higher than I might need as far as the relay.
