It's inside the house, the gear oil I put in was SuperTech conventional gear oil 85w-140 from Wally world... After disassembling, cleaning every piece with paint thinner, re-assembling and installing a new neutral drain pack, and sealing with Permatex RTV blue, the machine seems to be running...

Transmission oil I feel like an idiot at the moment... I was just finishing some cleanup from replacing the neutral drain pack yesterday, and realized I grabbed the wrong weight of gear oil.... 85w-140! Is this going to damage the gearcase? Should I drain and refill with 80w-90? **Sigh**

"HE" = Junk I wouldn't trade it for anything. The neutral drain pack went out in the transmission, so, yesterday I totaly disassembled the gearcase, cleaned each part with paint thinner and a paint brush, reassembled, and replaced the neutral drain pack and clutch kit, filled with fresh...

I have a Whirlpool Direct Drive (GSW9800PW2) and I currently have a 3 pad clutch installed. Can the 6 pad clutch be used on my machine, as well as all other DD machines? (Part# 8299642) I have read in a few places that the 6 pad clutch can only be used on certain DD models...

Are these SQ machines with old-school mechanical controls still made? I looked on the SQ website, and only saw top loaders with "pre-set" cycle selector knobs...NO thank you! I'd rather stick with my Whirlpool Direct Drive and have total control, if these are not made anymore....

Basket Drive Assembly I recently replaced the Clutch, Coupler, and Pump; Neutral Drain is next on the list. Parts finally came in. I also have a new drive block/bell that's still in OEM packaging sitting around from ages ago... I'm thinking of replacing the Basket Drive Assembly soon...

Complete Disassembly? DADoES, Are you saying it's best to completely disasemble, clean and re-assemble the gearcase, like shown in this video? Then clean with paint thinner (which I just bought), and reassemble using fresh 80w90 gear oil, and new Neutral Drain Kit?

Changing Oil Required? When replacing the neutral drain kit, is it required to drain and replace the oil in the gearcase, if the oil currently in the gearcase is still in good shape? Also, if draining the oil, what solution would you recommend using to thin out the oil and clean the internal...

Finally Getting Around To It... Finally getting around to replacing the Neutral Drain kit in the gearcase. Before I get it torn down, does anyone know what size socket is used to remove the bolts that hold the cover on? If I remember correctly, its 1/2" to remove the 3 retaining bolts that...

I have a Whirlpool Direct Drive (GSW9800PW2) with the dual action agitator. I'm thinking of trying an agitator with vanes, if I can find one that will fit, instead of the dual action. Can someone give me some part #'s or point me in the right direction on what options are available other than...

Hi guys, Another question about replacing the Neutral Drain Kit. I've been unable to find a gasket for the transmission/gearcase. Is there a OEM/Whirlpool approved gasket making material that I can use to seal the tranny back once the kit is replaced?

Well, after watching DADoES's video, and following the instructions to test the neutral drain...I suppose it's time to get my hands dirty in the next few days and replace the neutral drain kit in the gearcase. Thanks a million for all the help guys! :)

Brisnat81: I think you may have it. Would changing the gearcase oil solve the issue or am I looking at a total gearcase replacement here?

Yes, it goes silent. Happened again last night, and during the pause I didn't hear the pump running or anything. Pump runs continuously when the motor is running on direct drive, right? Correct me if I'm wrong.
