Beckie .... Ooooo, thanks! Snagged it.

Ben ..... I have that very same washer but with the lighted console at the botton. What year is yours? I need the lint filter though, mines cracked pretty bad. Bud - Atlanta

The dryer .... I grew up with but in white. It lasted 20 plus years cause dad knew how to keep it going. Changed the belt, replaced a thermostat a couple of times but for the most part a really good dryer.

Easy .... This one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/121950579273

Upper housing lip seal ..... This seal comes glued in place by GM. The old ones are tough to remove and after removal you can see the glue they used. I had a new one to fail. I always glued the new ones in, but the first one popped out while the rebuilt washer was in use. Since that failure, I...

Brake clips ..... The brake clips are made of spring steel .... a higher carbon steel and heat treated. One thing I did on every brake rebuild, I bent used clips closed so that the open ends just touched. Then heated them up with a torch to glowing orange hot and dropped them in 30 wt motor oil...

Who needs ..... a control panel light with that color? That radium green would light up any dark basement. Ok, I threw up a little bit in my mouth.

Interesting ..... Add to the chart .... 2018 CA = 1.8 gpm

Some brands ..... Now make the restrictor internal to the shower head and can't be removed or drilled out. I had to buy 3 different brands last year to find one I could modify. The other 2 were returned. Same thing with newer toilets. If the damn thing would actually flush solids down the...
