An Agitating Question If you are talking about changing the agitator dogs , if you turn the agitator upside down the new dogs will not drop out. They have a retainer type device on new models but that is how I change them, just did one Friday.

Worst Washer The worst US washer has to be the washer that replaced the GE top loader design of the 50-60-70-80 to 93 era. I know a recycling warehouse in the DC area that has rows of them that they can't give away.

Best Cleaning djshwasher My Maytag WC300 was a portable then built-in then built-in to our new kitchen. When I built it in the first time ran thru the heating domestic coil of out furnace then when I shut the furnace off the washability wasn't as good because I was using cold water! but it was...

Truck Load of Maytags That wouldn't be from Ron Schaffers collection that was sold in April 20, 2008? I had a great time at that Auction and picked up some Maytag Memoriabilia.

White westinghouse noise in spin The first thing I would look for is the drive belt. The belt gets oil on it and from wear the fabric wears off the sheeve area and the noise associated with the clutching slip of a worn belt is a high pitched squeal. They first used a Pirelli belt and upgraded...

Tub seal and bearing That might sound like alot of money for a repair but the machine should last a long time. I always recommend this repair unless there are other problems. I worked on a Maytag today that was 22 years old and all it needed were belts. By the way you could use those belts on...

Launderall by Jacobs Yes that is the model. I was hoping to get a link to the literature from oldhouseman but can't find thread 11305. I will take some photos when I get back from Kauai. I did go to Patents.com to get drawings, it looks complex mechanically but I am used to Maytag's "gutless...

Would somebody please explain? The suds savers were developed for conservation of water and detergent. Many areas need to conserve water as they either have wells or overtaxed water supplies. When you did your washes for the day you would washer the least soil items first and then divert the...

I am in the process of aquiring a 1947 Jacobs Launderall from a customer of mine whose husband was a dentist in our town. She purchased the washer in 1947 and it had been in the second story of her garage for 40 plus years. I am disassembling it to get it thru the narrow stairway to downstairs...

What I found in our Neptune Tub. I agree with you RCD my Neptune had alot of fatty globs in the tub and around the brush area. This was the second time I cleaned it, the first when I did the boot enhancement kit in April 2000 it was bad then and all we use is Liquid Tide HE. We are happy with...

When is the Neptune Full? I just put new tub bearings in ours. I spoke of removing and installing the tub bearings a few months ago. The job went well except a little harder removing the front bearing. We always have used Liquid HE detergent Tide so its not always a detergent issue.. Anyway my...

Summer Plans? We are going to Kauai the most western Hawaiian island. My wife made our plans in December and it seems crazy but the trip is paid for ( Neptune repairs calls helped) and I will stop by my friend Winston Kamamoto's Maytag store in Kapaa to talk Maytag. Our dream is to move there...

Porti -Fi We had a GE console stereo with the Portio-fi feature. I could play records or the radio and go to the barn that was 300 feet away and plug in the porti fi and hear the music from the porti fi speaker. I can't remember if the cows liked "In a Gadda Davita" but it made 2 hours in the...

Maytag Portable This Maytag Dishwasher is a good model with no issues. They have built this basic design since 1976. They started building portables around 1968 with the WC 200 and then discontinued in 1974 when they were not pleased with the serviceablity if their units. I bought a WC 300 in...

Maytag Neptune TL I have had my hands on a few of these. I replaced an off balance sensor on one as the terminal board had some corrosion that didn't allow the signal to the main board and as a result the default is the error code. Also using a nonconductive grease to seal from any corrsion is...

Maytag Questions I would run it and if it fails again check these things, is vent and lint filter clear of lint? Did it dry ok the first time? If was there any noise when it ran? If it occurs again I would disconnect the power, take the back off and vacuum the dryer out paying attention to the...
