providing housing for people who need housing Charity begins at home. How many native born Americans who need housing were passed over? Not the first time HFH has done this in my area either.

80s WP gas dryer They've got a nerve charging $125 for that dryer with the finish worn off drum. HFH's in my area are no different, they jacked prices way up a few years ago. Then they go and build a house for Ethiopian immigrants with the cash.

photo 3 looks too small for Natural Gas, I agree. No matter how far out the orifice is adjusted I don't see how it can meter enough NG to provide the correct BTU's. However, once the orifices are drilled out to the right size for NG then maybe they could be adjusted for use with either fuel

Finally got around to taking some photos of gas orifices on my friends vintage Tappan Deluxe stove. I was surprised to see it has a needle valve that extends into the orifice. From what I've read the flame height can be adjusted buy turning the orifice spud. My question is: Can this be...

2001 Whirlpool in the garage that keeps going Our 1990 or so (can't remember exactly it's been so long) GE side by side is still going strong with zero repairs other than a door hinge and the ice chute flapper. I often see these models still running fine in people's garages after they've done...

chance to purchase it for $400. $400 for a seven year old washer and unknown mileage? I'd pass. Or make lower offer in the $200-250 range, IF in excellent condition

On closer examination they appear to have seen some rough use, especially the washer. Looks like they are in a commercial business setting as well.

Would you buy the washer and dryer for $150?? I'd make a lower offer like $100-125. Something is wrong with the front panel on the washer, looks like the left side retaining clip is missing. And they shoved the power cord and supply hoses in the tub, thats often indicative of how they were...

Hydrogen peroxide This If you do it first. Warm water and detergents could likely set the stain. Don't ask me how I know. There is a thread on this subject from a few months ago.

or must it be accessed from inside Yep. Better just leave it alone. Tub bolts have built in rubber gaskets, they can sometimes be salvaged with RTV sealant applied from inside the tub.

hopefully good to go now. Looks like the front tub bolt is leaking as well, see all that rust on the spring eyebolt.

Energy use must decrease but performance cannot suffer. And their tally of bricks shall not diminish. So let it be written, so let it be done.

you would not recommend a used SQ? I just had a bad experience with a used SQ, seemed to me it died before it's time, but was in good shape otherwise. The Maytag that replaced it I picked up at an estate sale and was probably older than the SQ but it's been trouble free since the day it was...

those of us who have always wanted one Have you considered a late model orbital trans Maytag washer? Same platform as your A112 but with a short stroke trans, load sense agitator and large capacity tub. I got one for some friends after the used SQ washer I fixed them up with died after a...

Wages and consumers are a lot of times forced to buy crap True. Back in the day even those on a tight budget could afford a manufacturer's BOL of the line machine that was just as reliable as their TOL machines, perhaps even more so. Nowadays thats not really any option anymore, people have...

the ones of yesteryear would cost around $2500.- now. Adjusted for inflation thats about what people paid for yesteryear W/D's.. with the understanding they would get many years of service for their money.

There is nothing unusual about the Viton o-rings that I'm aware of, replacements can be found at Ace hardware and such.

Why alternate the originality if you don’t have to”. Right. And a new florescent bulb will likely last the remaining lifetime of the machine.

appears that the main tub bearing and seal has been replaced Thats not necessarily a bad thing if the work was done correctly and before water intrusion/corrosion trashed the agitator shaft and/or trans, which is the way things typically happen. (As a matter of fact you may want to lay the...
