Hold on a second... The machine in the first couple pics is almond in color, and is model number 110.92273800, correct? And your machine is model 110.92273100 in white, right? Those two model numbers are the exact same 1992 model 70 series machine, only the color is different. The 8 in the...

There are only three belts... 1) One for the portables that use the multi-groove belt (these are the later ones with the fast spin). 2) A narrow v-belt for the quiet-pak construction models, I believe it is a 1/4" belt. 3) The most common notched v-belt, which is the 3/8" belt mentioned above.

Quiet pak... Unfortunately the washer does not have the quiet pak belt. The last primary model issued to use that belt for Kenmore was a 1979 Kenmore 80-series 24-inch model. It wasn't a widely made model, though production numbers are relative for KM vs others. The last mainstream quiet...

Still being sold? Is P&G still selling Bold today? Last place I know to sell it was Lowe's. It was in limited distribution according to P&G a few years ago. They had it even after the 2011 recreation of "ultra" powder. Haven't noticed it there in a few years. Gordon

'72 Kenmore 700 This is a 1972 Kenmore 700. The 1972 KM line was vast with models, starting with a 200 series entry single speed model, to the final standard capacity Lady Kenmore 900, and probably a dozen models in between. The KM "plastic panel" debuted this year on at least three machines...

Hmmm... Mark - If you can't reach in and spin the basket by hand, not even a little, then something is wrong in the centerpost & basket drive areas. You'll need to remove the agitator, the tub ring, the agitator drive block, and the basket locknut to remove the inner wash basket. Then...

Hey guys, I'm willing to help! I certainly don't need any more machines, but would be glad to help with the labor and maybe my truck and appliance dolly. I have a Ranger too, and same as Rich, 2-3 pieces max (I am most comfortable with 2 so I can keep the tailgate up). Tyler - if you want...

Need to modify my response from last night... Mark - I must have been tired when I was trying to describe the basket drive yoke support in my response above. The yoke itself does not need to be lubricated, but the support it sits on does, as does the cam bar spring (both sides) that looks...

Non oem belts for WP belt-drives Malcolm, I haven't seen a lot of non-oem belts for BDs, but I know that they are out there. I have seen a couple ERP95405 on ebay, which is a common after-market parts company. I would imagine that Supco makes or made one, and possibly RobertShaw and a few...

Spin issues... Mark, Such cool machines! It was fun to look at this thread again. I think you will be surprised how much a new belt will do. The most drag on the belt in the cycle operation is spin start. A sign of an aging or loose belt is a squeal at the switch to neutral drain from...

Eugene and John Continuing the temporary hijack... The machine in my profile pic is a 1961 Kenmore Seventy series. This is one of two primary 70 series models that year as the other had the same physical console but different controls with push-in buttons similar to a 1963 Lady K that stop...

I agree with Malcolm... This does sound like a slow drain problem. These machines won't spin when the water level pressure switch is still satisfied. It sounds like water is partially draining enough to un-trip the switch, then the machine completes the spin circuit and starts to spin...

Lots to say... The comments made about adding the "string catcher" lint filter and the three port pump are essentially correct. That filter, which was molded into the tub ring housing, is usually powered via a three port pump, unless the machine is a suds saver, which required the old four...

Stephen, You don't need to disassemble any mechanicals under the baseplate to remove the tub. You will want to disconnect the hoses coming from the filter port however which in your picture is at the 1-o'clock position. Due to limited space, they are usually easiest to disconnect at the pump...

These are interesting machines, I've always wanted to find one down here in the U.S. that someone brought in from Canada. They were built in the Inglis plant, correct? The ad says these are sold, pending pick-up. Did you get them Kevin? Gordon

Yes as Martin has said, it can be done. The particulars as to the best way to do it would depend on the way the machine is configured now. Over the years there have been various drain configurations, and four different pumps used in these, so it would be best and simplest to know what the...

A bit of a departure? Inspired from the recent Mazda commercial, I was thrilled to find this on YouTube simply by paraphrasing a few lyrics. http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBgQ5ZiphUs

Did we miss this one or did I just not see it?? http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbbRkHazUIg

Steve - If you can work it out, this machine is all yours. For all you do on the site to help folks with their KitchenAid machines, I'd be glad to give you this one. Gordon

When I first saw this thread... My mind immediately went to the Crystals' song "And then he kissed me", which I discovered in college when viewing the movie "Adventures in Baby Sitting" We used to have a wonderful late 50s/60s/early 70s station here in town, but the station owners decided that...
