Hello there, I have a Hoovermatic Deluxe t5090 for spares or repairs. Would like £50 for it, but any offers will be considered. I have gone through two pump belts already, due to a leak, I think it will need a new bellow seal ideally, or maybe fixed with silicone. That is the only thing wrong...

Hello there, Trying to fix my t5090 Hoovermatic. I need a new bellow seal and bearing set. I have cleaned up the seal, it looks like there are no splits in the rubber, but it seems to be leaking between the con rod and bearing. I have found a vintage hotpoint bellow seal, could I use this on a...

Hello all, I posted a few days ago about a leak on my Hoovermatic Deluxe t5090. I'm pretty convinced now that its the spin can rubber seal thats the problem. The belts were left totally soaked, and the little sensor, that measures the amount of water for the auto rinse is leaking a little, but...

Hi all, My Twin Tub has been running fine, apart from a very insignificant small leak that I have been putting up with. But after replacing the pump belt the other day and then using the machine, It was spinning ok but making a sort of loose slapping noise, is the best I can describe it. I...

Spinner belt update I have removed the spinner belt, and my partner has said it's the pump belt, which makes sense, as I still have water in the bottom of both the spinner can and wash tub. The belt located underneath which runs the spinner seems fine, but this has to be removed before we can...

Hello there everyone! Yes the spinner belt has given up the ghost. Can you buy and replace these belts, it had a new belt on the washer tub before I bought it, but the spinner looks a bit more intricate to fix. Any advice would be great. Kind Regards Rebecca.

Hoovermatic Somerset Thanks Chestermike, Will follow the advice, it's great to see the original instruction booklet. I was watching your videos, before I bought my Hoover matic, so you inspired me to go for it and by one. I really want to get hold of an older one at some point. Will get some...

Hoovermatic update Hello Everyone, Before I start, thank you to everyone for the great advice. Have had another run today with the machine, and followed the instructions about the auto rinse. Oh my god! What a miracle, a step forward in twin tub technology, what a break through. I could walk...

Pump Hoovermatic Hello again, Will have a look under the spin can tomorrow, to make sure its all moving smoothly. As for the pump, when I was rinsing it did seem to be pumping out inconsistently. You would get a large flow of water, to begin with then, it would slow down a bit. Although when...

Leak on the spin can/burnt rubber smell/hot motor Thanks for your help. I have sent you an email Anthony, more problems have come up with the machine. The spin can noise is not terrible, I think the machine stood for a while, and maybe because I've used it several times now the spin noise is...

Hello there, I have just bought my first Hoover twin tub, a t5090. Have used it a couple of times but have noticed it has started to leak from the black rubber seal on the outside of the spinner tub, which connects to a white plastic pipe, which is connected to a thick red wire leading up to the...
