    Yeah well I’ve used two of these T GE washers too, and my experience was not the same. They were both fine. And you two tiddlywinks won’t accept that most of the model T washers ran perfectly fine and quiet for years to come. Maybe you and Chet got duds. Or you’re just abusive to machines.

    I will add. There’s nothing inherently wrong with a suspension rod system. The belt drive was rod suspended. The problem is none of these modern machines are dampened like older ones. So the tubs go out of control a little easier. When designed right, suspension rods will transmit a lot less...

    Does anyone know a fix for this?

    That’s so funny. You’re Maytag has a plastic gear in it Matt.

    Do Dishwasher in "autoclean" mode know if it needs another rinse?

    Typically, no, at least not any of the American dishwasher brands. The way sensor cycles typically work is they sense low, medium or high soil. And those each have a set cycle sequence. So it’s possible the medium and/or high soil settings will have one or two added post-rinses.

    Sure, Jan. This is my grandma from WWII we’re talking about, who kept an immaculate home and washed everything in “LINCO.”

    lol this thread is such a circular hand massage. I know the T series wasn’t as tank-like as FilterFlo. But the FilterFlos were probably the worst of the classic washers. C’mon now. Cardboard backing? Weird giant rubber boot on the bottom of the tub? Major weak spot. Giant outer tub and tiny...

    Low temp dryer thermostats

    There are some adjustable ones from White Rodgers that could be drop in replacements. They’re on McMaster or a site called supplyhouse.com https://www.supplyhouse.com/White-Rodgers-3F05-1-3-4-Snap-Disc-Fan-Control-Temperature-Range-90-to-130-Degrees-F-Includes-Tab-to-Screw-Terminals-14699000-p

    And what did GM do besides design a crazy interesting mechanism and washer that could wash shockingly well, while having the fastest spin cycle of the era?

    A lot of these oiling ports are used at the point of production and meant to be sealed “for life.” If you want to pump oil or grease in there, that’s fine, but all the washers of my relatives went 20+ years with no oiling.

    While the WP “super duper advanced technology” of a ratcheting auger was a better performer than a Newton Maytag with a one stage agitator, Maytags are perfectly adequate when loaded properly. We had a Maytag growing up and it lasted till the mid 2010s. As long as it wasn’t stuffed and you set...
