On this Kenmore clutch shaft. Does anybody know what this is? I though it may have been some sort of set screw but it doesn't look like that. Thanks

I've just re-built the gearcase for my Kenmore washer, and it seems like the top of agitator shaft spring is snagging inside the agitator spring shield which goes on top of the spring. I hear this when I manually turn the main drive pulley. It happens when the sector gear goes back and forth...

Hi Ben, Thanks for you response, I actually saw your thread on this while searching the archives. What is that device that you used to press out and install the bearing? I don't have anything like that so I was wondering if there is another way to do it, otherwise I will probably have to take...

I was removing the spin pulley from the spin tube and on the spin tube it was scored a little near the top from the seal, and when I twisted off the pulley I think it scored the inside of the bearing (see pics). I probably shouldn't have done that, but do you guys think I should replace this...

I have this 1955 Admiral Black & White TV, and while it is not a high end model I'd like to have it fixed. It will need the usual, new caps/resistors and the tubes need to be checked. The last time it was turned on was about 15 years ago, and it worked at the time but the picture was very...

Thanks guys, I was trying to avoid buying the whole assembly, I thought just the plastic piece alone would be cheaper but I may not be able to find just that. The one in the link looks different than the one I have, the hole for the pin is more at the top than mine which is in the middle, not...

Anybody know where I can get a comparable rubber boot for a Kenmore Washer Leveling Foot? The metal feet are ok but the rubber is no good. I've searched a bit but can't find anything similar. Thanks

James, I'm actually doing a gearcase overhall too, for the first time on a 1971 Kenmore, so it was good to see your pictures. I was wondering how you got the retainer ring back on the agitator shaft after you installed the new spring and seal. With the new spring it's very hard to push it...

I'm rebuilding a gearcase on a 1971 Kenmore washer and wasn't sure if the main drive pulley needs to be removed in order to get the gearcase cover off. I've already removed the set screw, but was wondering if the pulley needs to come off. If it does, what's the best way to remove it? I really...

Replacing Capacitor on Central A/C Unit Yogitunes, I plan to re-place the capacitor on my Central A/C within the next few weeks. It's about 12 years old and I heard that it's best to replace them every 5 years or so, since they typically only last that long. I just want to be pro-active and...

Weber grill refurbishing Pic #2

I recently refurbished my 12 year old Weber Grill. Took it all apart, sanded the exterior and repainted with Rustoleum High Heat spray paint(exterior only) and replaced some parts. Total cost was about $80. It was a lot of work but I hope it will last another 12 years. Anyone who knows WEBER...

This is my first washer restore (from @1970), so I have a few questions. First, I had some issues taking off the agitator, but some of you guys helped out on the forum and I got it off. Everything else came apart ok for the most part. All the rubber seals will be changed. I have a few...

I was wondering what some of you guys do when you need to replace an internal rubber hose in a washer that is no longer made by the manufacturer. It seems that some of the hoses are preformed (bent) a certain way to fit the location. An example of what I mean is in the picture below. Do you...

Thanks all for your assistance. Maybe I'll host an agitator removal party and have a few of my friends try to help me lift it out. Of course I won't tell them this until they get here, they may not show up!!!!!!!
