Well I don't love Maytags, don't hate them either.  You need a good set of 1-18's and you know who might sell you a set!

Wow, you just never know what you're going to find.  This may be the find of the year around here.

Think I might try this tomorrow.  If I do I'll post a picture!

I've never seen one either That surely would have been an agitator mounted dispenser with that control panel.  I also noticed that different knob right away.  Reminds me a bit of the old "Deluxe" model that had the timer dial mounted below the main control panel with the cycles printed on the...

High pressure Head I recently went through this with a bathroom remodel. I hated the new one that went with the install kit. It had a permanent flow restrictor in it. I bought this and it's just as good as the old one from 1963! I removed the screw in restrictor from it and the water just...

Bob, I'm glad you got in on this. I was going to call you. I wish I had room to take something but I'm as full as I can get and still walk in the basement to use my machines. As all of you know I'm covered up this time of year. Miss all of you, can't wait to get together again!

Check this thread out where I did a complete teardown and replacement of the lower bearing.  You may find some helpful information in there.  Ben did a lot of research to help me at the time.   Joe     http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?51238

If it is in fact the solid tub model I don't think it would be the lid switch.  If it were that it would do anything else either.  On the solid tub you do not remove the front because it is a full cabinet.  There is a small rear access panel but for most work it has to be disconnected and turned...

I'll provide you a brief answer The first Frigidaire Mechanism, the Unimatic was a single speed only.  In 1959 the Multimatic Mechanism was introduced.  This employed a two speed reversing motor.  Slow/fast agitation was achieved in one direction and the spin in the other with the use of a...

Wow Now that is a find!  They just follow you home!

Oh how I wish I could have come!  Bob had invited me but as ya'll know I'm buried until summertime.

Speaking from personal experience, it's very hard to beat a GM 3800 (unless it's a series 2)

Haha, the engine is the only thing that didn't give problems, at least until near the end of my ownership when I had to have a few sensors replaced.  I'll not start the long list here but I will say that little b***h burned through brakes every 40k and CV axles every few years.

Presently I have a late 2010 Lacrosse CXS Touring.  Prior to that I've numerous cars with the 3800.  Here's the list   1986 Olds 88 Royal Brougham (had the pre 3800 SFI engine) 1989 Buick Park Avenue 1990 Buick Park Avenue Ultra 1991 Cadillac Eldorado Biarittz 1995 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi...

I have 75,000 on my Lacrosse CXS now and it's been bulletproof.  I had three GM's (olds and buick) that had the 3800.  A fine engine!  I'm curious as to whether or not the 3600 will have that same mileage longevity of the 3800 it replaced.  This thread has got me wanting to go shopping for a...

polkanut We tried everything, my dealer is actually a friend as well.  Other dealers had what I wanted but the issue was that they would not turn loose of it to acquisition or it was out of the range of what I wanted to pay.  I could have ordered a new one but a AWD Platinum Edition XTS is...

You'll love it! I drove one just like that while my 2010 Lacrosse was being serviced.  I'd really like to have one but my requirements were such that they couldn't locate.  I have to have a certain color, options, etc and it had to be AWD to meet my criteria.

Sure, here's a picture of the fill and second picture is of the deep rinse during the first spin.    

How well has it held up? Well, here's proof of GM Frigidaire quality.  This 1972 machine has only had the timer motor replaced and as of November had it's first servicing of the agitator arm bearing.  The matching dryer is still going too, without any repairs, just the occasional clean out...

Nope That's what a Filter-Flo's braking system sounds like.
