Mrs. Porter Hi Jimmy, Mrs. Porter sure knew how to make a peanut butter sandwich. Thanks for the info on the clutch. Mike

Correction I talked with Jimmy. The coupling is so the motor can move with the inner tub/transmission. It does not have anything to do with the clutch jamming. My bad. Go Americans. Mike

Smart design, engineered in Hey, GE runs the motor at full speed so the pump always runs at full speed. This way, you keep the water circulating through the filter flo pan at full capacity even on slow speed. Unlike a Kenmore, which I also own, when it is on the slowest speed, the water pumped...

San Diego/Palm Springs This did stay in the club. Harvest gold from SD/PS won the auction. A beautiful machine to add to the collection for sure. Mike

Thanks for the kind words Matthew, hope you are feeling better! We missed you. Mickeyd, you are more than welcome to stop by. If you let me know when you plan to come out, we can set up a wash-in with the locals to welcome you. Jimmy had to cancel his trip at the last minute due to a robbery...

Halo Hi, Thanks for the kind words. The "halo" is the reflection of the flourescent light in the window. I noticed that also. Hope you can meet some folks and do a wash-in. I know there are at least a couple folks in Buffalo so maybe you can do one soon. I was born at Kenmore Mercy in Buffalo...

Last Pic from MK Dave with the V14 set. I hope all made it home safe in the rain (here in CA, rain is like black ice in the North East). Hope to see you back at the next wash-in. Mike

More pix Revvin Kevin with some detergent from Asia (Phillipines).

More pix Tim and I have been friends since we met at a Gay Youth Group in Orange County, CA back in 1982. Long term friendships are rare and very special. This was Tim and his partners first wash-in and they had a great time. Even Tim's soiled bathroom carpet came out squeaky clean!

Over 12 Loads Done in 4 hours! The Long Beach wash-in was a great success. As host, it was great to have everyone over. Dave from Lakewood, CA (he lives about 4 miles from me) came to his first wash-in. Peter from Atlanta was here for the first time for a West Coast wash-in. Locals Kevin and...

Hey, Let's fill up this room with hungry folks and some laundry to wash. An Evite has been created for those who I have talked to or met in the SoCal area. If you would like to attend, please email me and I will add you to the Evite: [email protected]. See you at the Wash-In! Mike

Versatronic Hi Ben, What a great washer and I love the pics of the clutch assembly. I have a Versatronic pair I got in a round-about way from Jimmy (Filter Flo). The versatronic clutch had been replaced with a one speed unit like you have. I hope someday to find a versatronic clutch to install...

Fabulous What a great dryer. All the effort to travel to pick it up, literally, as they seller did not have it upstairs for you as promised, paid off with a beautiful vintage dryer. It sure cleaned up to perfect condition. I hope you find the washer soon. Mike

Happy Holidays fellow washer collectors! East coast guests are coming in January and I am scheduling a wash-in in their honor. Jimmy (Filter Flo) from Ohio and Jill from PA are motoring to the coast, where we will rendevous in Phoenix/Scottsdale for the car auction weekend. The following...

Yumm Hi Charles, Look forward to tasting your great cooking at the next wash-in, planned for late January. Mike

Saddle tanks They failed to mention the location GM chose for the fuel tank, which if the vehicle was hit from the side, often meant a fuel tank rupture and possible fire (NBC trickery aside). They also fail to mention that the hood is so thin, it bends in the middle after a few years of use...

3 Electric dryers at one time Hi, My detached garage has a 200 amp panel with a feed to another 200 amp panel on the house. My game/wash room is wired with five 220 volt dedicated lines (and at least a dozen 120V outlets). I would never use all five 220 circuits at the same time but have run...
