    Everybody else is doing it, so why can't I?

    Bob is right. Maytag did advertize a metered fill...and it was different from those of other dishwashers...but only that the fill time was extended...it was still timed for the most part. It would not sit there if it didn't get enough water. But the flow was unrestricted and if it filled in 45...

    Everybody else is doing it, so why can't I?

    adds water during main wash?? If it is adding water a few mins into the main wash portion of the cycle for about 10-15 seconds, that is completely normal. Every belt driven Maytag I ever used did that.

    the price is right,milnor 55

    Launderess "Feared" meaning mechanics and commercial service techs. that are unfamiliar with working on a Milnor multi motor, multi clutch machine are sometimes intimidated by working on one. And it's really pretty simple once you know how it works. Somewhere not too long ago I posted the...

    the price is right,milnor 55

    30022M5J MILNOR Modle numbers will help you do the math. 30022 means 30" diameter x 22" depth cylinder size. That's 9.0 cubic feet and that's not IEC ot whatever they use now to justify capacity in home front loaders. That's two cubic feet more than the largest home dryer capacity. The...

    problem with L G TROMM

    I fill my LG Tromm 2432 with a hose through the dispenser when I need hot water wash. If you shut the cold off....as soon as the sump senses below 50c it shuts the hot off completely and will not fill at all. If you fill on Sanitary with extra hot wash selected it will fill with the hot line...

    OK Who Has Never Seen One of These Before?

    Why would a machine neutral drain, then spray as it started to spin/rinse? Wouldn't a small overflow rinse while starting to spin be better for lifting the muck and soap scum off the laundry rather than allowing it to "filter" through the laundry? Solid tub Norges did an overflow rinse. The...

    OK Who Has Never Seen One of These Before?

    What I really liked about these machines is you only had to go to the MOL machine to get flexability. At one time or another, all the variations; Norge, Wards, Admiral, etc. had a MOL machine, 2 speeds 3 cycles. Regular, Gentle and Perm Press with up to 14 minutes of wash time for each cycle...

    Montgomery Wards Norge and the funky spin

    I have used 2 versions of this machine Both had 1 min timer increments. After agitation there was a 1 min pause, 1 min of forced nuetral drain with the brake latch engaged. During that minute the pressure switch would become unsatisfied and the spray would start while still in neutral. After...

    Maytag; sudslock proof?

    air bubbles in sheets/pregnant roto swirl Wow, you just brought back my memory of the first automatic washer I ever saw. My mom still had a wringer and we lived in a duplex. The owners of the house had an early 50's Kenmore w/ roto swirl. I have seen that machine a few times here...I know some...

    Maytag; sudslock proof?

    2 minutes did the trick in a standard capacity machine as long as it was not overloaded. In a fully loaded deep tub machine, even 2 minutes was always a little skimmpy in my opinion. 3 or 4 minutes would have been great. I do think it's funny that Maytag still offers one classic style model with...

    Maytag; sudslock proof?

    Ken, you are correct. Although it is somewhat difficult to suds lock a classic Maytag, it is in those low water level situations where the suds lock "satisfies" the water level switch and turns off the water until the level drops. The A511 is actually part of the "10" series. It is nothing more...
