Cyclamatic thermostat Ralph, what you could do to make the refrigerator make longer runs between stops is to "insulate" the tip of the thermostat bulb, in the area where it rests (makes contact) against the refrigerator side cooling plate (lower evaporator). To do this, just unscrew the metal...

Just a suggestion... Dustin, why don't you shut off her water heater pretending it's broken down, and tell her you'll have to wait at least two weaks for the replacement part? After two weeks of cold showers maybe she'll be convinced of the benefits of washing at least in warm water, LOL.

FRIGIDAIRE ICE EJECTOR TRAYS Our 1965 Frigidaire Cyclamatic refrigerator came with one of those buckets and two ice trays. The ice tray had to be placed facing down on top of the bucket, then you raised the handle and down fell the ice cubes into the bucket! It was the best thing after a real...

White Knight Gas Dryer Brazilianguy, your country is 60 Hz. This unit is for 220-240V, 50Hz. I don't think they sell export units for 60Hz.

Donna Reed Show Wasn't the family car in the Donna Reed Show an Edsel? I have never seen re-runs of this show, but I'm almost sure about this. The car was driven up the driveway up to the garage door, and the kitchen back door opened just to let you see the front of the car, and I loved every...

1955 Lincoln Futura 112561, the Lincoln Futura prototype which appears in the picture you posted was later used as the Batmobile car in the Batman series of the '60's. They just simply painted it black with red stripes; the car used in the series was this very same prototype, basically...

Solenoid valves brisnat81, solenoid fill valves actually include a very clever device that keeps water flow constant regadless of the supplied water pressure, within a wide range. This is achieved by the pressure regulator, a very simple device which progressively restricts water flow as supply...

Water flow restrictor Most solenoid water valves include a water pressure regulator (flow restrictor) in the inlet body, sitting right behind the mesh filter. Unscrew the water line, remove mesh filter and with long nose pliers or a small flat screw driver remove the water restrictor from the...

Supremewhirpol and DADoES, thank you very much for your very clear instructions. I have already re-sent them to the owner of the washer. Maybe I'll give him a hand this coming weekend. I'll keep you informed! Emilio

The washer washes and spins, but just doesn't drain. Main motor runs OK.

A friend of mine brought from the US a Kitchen Aid TL washer (with matching gas dryer). He had used both units in the US for a couple of years before moving down here. He connected both units to separate 220/110 V step down transformers. In spite of the cycle difference both units worked...
