Oh, and to RP2813, my Moms donation of the Maytag looks very similar (if not identical) to the Maytag in the link you sent me, lol. Apparently as a family, we were NORGE people (my parents bought me my Norge as a Christmas gift when I first moved away from home). Then, when they discontinued...

Hey guys...thanks, thanks, thanks, for ALL your help. We just received and installed the 2cd seal (the one originally recommended by Akronman) and clearly I should have just taken his advise right from the start and ordered his seal from ebay. My husband said it was larger and just enough to...

Well, back at the machine and waiting on the second seal to arrive. For now, removing agitator and cleaning drive shaft between loads seems to be saving my clothes, if not the transmission. Each spin cycle is leaving about a 5in x.4cm drip of oil under the spline. Not sure how long a machine...

year? Ive been thinking about the year I got my machine. I can only estimate but Im betting it was about December of 1983. I tried looking to see if there was a year on the "Energy Saved" yellow sticker on the front but I couldnt find a date on it. I also no longer have my manual (which is...

seal box. Sorry, couldnt fit the seal box in the pic. The box was marked "The Westward Company".

The seal I am attaching a picture of the seal diagram and the packing box.

Control Panel Here is the control panel from my Norge

sniff sniff... Well folks, I got back from vacation and my hubby had located a seal (locally) that was supposed to work. It was just marked "33-7806 seal assembly, for use with all transmissions except 33-6181". Everything was going along just fine until today.....then the little black oil...

Mr. Akronman, Im am actually on vacation now, but as soon as I return, Ill see if I can post some pics and determine if the seal is right for my vintage model.

Well, not the fabric softner. ;0( I ran a hot soapy load after cleaning the spindle. While there wasnt oil on my clothes, when I pulled the agitator, I could see a slight bit of oil starting again on the spindle...so its not fabric softner (as I was hoping). My husband knows a local shop with...

I cant figure out why my return posts arent here...maybe a huge time lag. At the risk of being redundant, Ill try again. Mr. Akronman, prior to reading your posts, I already took the front off not to find anything beyond dust. I then removed the agitator and man....greasy looking scum all...

I own (and use) the only washer/dryer set I ever owned. It is an old Norge Heavy Duty 20 that literally was a Christmas gift from my parents for my first apartment. While it is now an antique (almost 30yrs old), it has been a workhorse and I have refused to replace it for many years because of...
