Does it have to be exactly that size? Can you simply order a piece of sheet rubber and cut it nearly the same size? That's what I've done in most of these situations with either rubber or cork.

that do only cold rinses hmmmph, as if I have such a thing lol or have the capability of doing either warm or cold Yes that I can do, which I will try to get to soon.

I have a bunch of those style valves and have not had any issues with them. I would test it first, the worse thing I've seen happen with those valve is a small drip into the wash tub when it is off, which you'll catch overnight.

For whites, sheets and cleaning rags = Hot Wash/Warm Rinse all year long. For colors it's Hot or Warm wash, sometimes I'll use medium switching from hot to warm when tub is 2/3 full of water. Rinse: October-April is Warm for everything, May-September is I'll use cold as long as the tap water...

I would try clearing your cache Chet as well, not just cookies. Try it in a different browser and see if you have the same result.

Another thing I should mention is timer does specifically call for 90 seconds of possible fill time. Of course the coil is suppose to cut-off the water flow if proper water level is reached before 90. I had this dishwasher in my kitchen for several years and you could tell where the perfect...

Have you taken the measuring coil apart and make sure the contacts are clean and the springs aren't broken? It could be rusted closed or just dirty. Worse comes to worse you can convert the dishwasher into a time fill dishwasher. That would mean replacing the measuring coil with a special...

I use Cascade Complete Powder that you can get at Target or Walmart. It works extremely well in my KDS-18 KitchenAid. It is extremely rare to ever have anything that doesn't come out clean. I use the Walmart advance dishwasher packs in my 1965 Lady Kenmore Roto-rack. They don't work quite as...

Out of sheer curiosity what is the oldest automatic washer you've ever received in?

testing please ignore, will delete soon. https://www.ebay.com/itm/205431051103 more text https://www.ebay.com/itm/205431051103

Hey Louvac, I think the first thing to do is tilt the machine back and see if that brown liquid is actually coming from the left front corner or is there a bunch more of it under the machine and where is it dripping from. Has it happened more than once after you wiped it up?

Great find Justin!!! I think this is a 1958 model... https://christmas.musetechnical.com/ShowCatalogPage/1958-Sears-Fall-Winter-Catalog/1050

Super cool find Justin, I really like the pre-war Bendix washers with the front spray fill flume that drenches and rinses the clothes as opposed to the post-war Bendix washers where the fill was directed above the wash cylinder.

Wow very cool to see a dryer like that being assembled. Love the gold color paint, I assume it was just gold color paint and not real gold leaf paint but who knows. I do have to wonder what happened to those workers when the Dryer Division moved from Michigan to I assume Indiana.

Sean out of curiosity how are you securing those PVC pipes on the inside of the outer tub and creating a seal? Just curious because there isn't much room between the outer tub and wash basket even with the protruding dimple in the outer tub.

I agree with what others said, I've never had good luck using vintage dishwasher detergent unfortunately. Dishwasher detergent seems to have a shelf life that does expire with time. On the other hand I've had extremely good luck and results using vintage phosphate laden laundry detergent. As...

An interesting concept behind this machine that most of the public did not accept. Using the same machine to wash dishes and clothes had very little appeal. Except what the public didn't understand is the tubs are completely separate, the way it is designed there is no way that any water that...

Ugh that was so super cool! I love seeing the appliance departments of old department stores, just like I remember them when I was a kid in 60s. Love the freeway shots as well!

I ask because I see a perforated tub This is a solid tub washer with a perforated liner.

This is the first time I've ever seen truly vintage KitchenAid dishwasher television commercials. These are super cool!
