Surprised to see this after 40 years On Facebook Marketplace for $200 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/991706385067900/?rid=10158264862082064&ad_id&rt=1&refID=0&refType=0

Maybe not dishwasher related? I wonder if this is a gasket from a blender or canning jar. I can't imagine how it could dislodge from the vent. If you're willing, remove the bottom panel and look for water staining on the bottom of the tub that would indicate a leak. Yes, continue to "hit up...

Or 63 This model Flair was offered in 1962 and 1963. This is a good one, without the Speed Heat and Heat Minder burners that usually have failed by now. Also the porcelain lined oven is probably in better shape than the chrome ovens. There’s a “Fans of the Frigidaire Flair” group on Facebook.

Great idea Our 60 - 65 year old development was built in the middle of a pine forest. All the homes originally had septic tanks, so the sewer lines are fairly shallow. A few years back we had water backing up out of the laundry drain. The plumber who came said "if I take that clean out cap off...

Removable control panel Just like on Frigidaire 1/18 laundry. They promoted it, too.

Clamp I've had success using a worm drive hose clamp. You need to play with it, but it can work.

Amana? Looks very similar to this mid-80's Amana range.

Sorry I checked and I don't have a spare bellows.... There is one on eBay, though. The "5300" before the part number just indicates it's a post-WCI part. Seller has 4 available. https://www.ebay.com/itm/284627258412?hash=item42451b4c2c:g:m5wAAOSwjwph8wxR

Vintage parts in Albany Unfortunately, there are no more mom & pop appliance & parts stores left in Albany. My best luck has always been with eBay. I will check my parts stash to see if I have an extra one. My grandfather was a Trombley from Morrisonville..... I haven't been there in 35 years.

Frigidaire? That looks more like a Wards/Norge to me

cup with the perforated metal cover The good thing, Tom, is that they only offered that for one year, 1965. I think it was their attempt to avoid the detergent from being washed away before the actual wash action began. That was a problem on the spin-tube units that began the cycle with a...

Yes I agree That’s why I knew those later Frigidaire dishwashers were D&M built, the cast iron housing. The Tech Talk shows the different (from GM) housing.

D&M built Frigidaire model They offered that weird hybrid D&M model with the Frigidaire wash-arm in the 1967-68 top-load models. Everything above the pump housing was the GM style, but the housing I believe was cast iron and not plastic. Definitely the one that PhilR has falls into this category.

It was me that questioned your comments. There is so much bad information on those Facebook vintage groups, like “my 1947 Flair”. Argument? I simply asked for more proof than “so-and-so told me”. I also want accuracy with my comments, which is why I challenged you to provide back-up...

model numbert location Open the door and note the chrome paanel across the bottom front. It is hinged, so you need to pop it forward. It may have some grime holding it in place so you can pry with a putty knife. There's a fellow on the Flair Facebook group that parts out Flairs and he might be...

Also Bubble Bandit For the folks using Bubble Bandit dishwasher detergent, they are raising prices about 6% on Febuary 1st.

We 86'ed the OTR microwave Ralph, when we moved here 9 years ago and wanted to redo the kitchen, we decided against an OTR Microwave. I wanted a decent exhaust hood over the gas cooktop. We use the micro to defrost, reheat and cook frozen veggies and oatmeal. We ended up with this Sharp that...

Where did they go? Does anyone know why Frigidaire stopped making front-load washers? They disappeared from their website a couple of years ago, with no explaination.

Residential natural gas prices Our natural gas supplier, National Grid, has raised the price per therm from .42 in Dec 2020 to .61 this month. No bargain there! Thank god our Trane furnace is 97% efficent.

Or this one I think either one might work but this one lists the original part # 116100...
