looking for specifically when I get it off? If the agitator comes off without a battle put some silicone grease or vaseline on the splines/ stop ring and breath a sigh of relief. Sometime the agitators on older models with the stop ring are stuck tight.

and get to know em better. Did you try removing the agitator? Should pull straight up, hopefully without a major battle.

Wow Nice score. Maytag shaded coppertone set in excellent condition are rare as hens teeth these days.

Went to a customer of ours today, an appliance tech had their four year old Electrolux gas dryer disassembled. She told me they left the house with the dryer running, when they came back the dryer was still running and the house reeked of gas. The tech said it was the gas valve. How is...

what parts would you recommend for a direct drive You'll have to ask the DD experts on that one. I'm more familiar with vintage Maytags and have a stash of the common and not so common replacement parts and spares. Many (but not all) can still be found for sale today but not at the bargain...

Too numerous to mention How many items have been discontinued the last few years, not just appliance parts. The latest for me is the J&J contact lenses I've been using for over a decade. (At least they gave a warning on that one) My advice if that happens is to stockpile items you will...

Here an A712 donor machine for parts, only $15. The catch is its in the Bronx.. https://newyork.craigslist.org/brx/app/d/bronx-maytag-washing-machine-parts/7539697903.html

I used citric acid I've never used citric acid but I have used diluted muriatic acid to remove stubborn hard water deposits. The trick is to wet down one area at time with saturated paper towel or rag only long enough to remove deposits then quickly flush throughly with water. No soaking or...

which oil to use in it. I would use the genuine Maytag oil. If that can't be found use Sta-Lube 85-90w GL-4 gear oil.

Would this work with that setup? No, the Hose Grip slips onto a 1-1/2 or 2 inch pipe. In your case the zip ties should be enough and allow for proper venting.

just trying to give this washer/parts a good home Throw it on Craigslist for $50 or so. Someone in your area may be interested. Don't list it for free or put it to the curb, scrappers will grab it for sure and it will end up as recycled beer cans.

and secured it in place with gorilla tape. How about one these instead of the half-assed gorilla tape and zip ties: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Fernco-2-in-x-2-in-x-2-00-in-dia-Hose-Grip-Hose-Grip-PVC-Fitting/1000075223

Agitator alone Could fetch $40-50 on ebay. Don't be in such a hurry to scrap it.

$475.00 was a considerable amount back then, With the ice maker $4810 adjusted for inflation to be exact.

I'm really pissed about not being able to use my LG flip phone in a few months, years of rock solid reliability, palm size, one hand operation just by feel of the keypad. The pinnacle of flip phones IMO. I would be okay with a smart phone if it wasn't a surveillance device that also makes...

and just gives another reason not to "upgrade". We are going to be forced to "upgrade" out cell phones before the end of the year. Verizon is shutting off 3G service and I won't be able to use my excellent LG flip phone anymore. Any suggestions for basic phones? All the Verizon offerings...

Success with the Tappan stove NG conversion. I ordered identical (almost) gas orifices on Ebay and drilled those to the NG sizes. (I saved the original orifices in case NG prices sky rocket European style and they want to go back to propane). I also went one drill size under on the large...

pin actually mushroomed from the force The gear should've first been heated with a propane torch,, thats likely how it was installed at the factory. Same way piston wrist pins are installed on connecting rods.

keep my 22 year old Maytag top loader alive You might have long wait before needing that SQ.
