I'm interested I have a few belt drives I'd like to keep going and large stockpile of parts. Been looking for this for awhile. If noone else wants it email me: [email protected]

Didn't you and your brother get your start picking up Norges repairing and selling them?

grabbed Picked it up this morning, it was on the curb, house seemed very neglected. I told the owner I'd see if I can get it working again and asked for a story behind the machine. All I got was, he found it when he was cleaning out the garage. Maybe I'll take a look at it in a few months or...

Not sure I'm going to keep it but thought I'd see how it works. Any interest in this? https://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/zip/6250979273.html

interesting, thanks for the info Gordon, I thought the model number placement moved when the consoles changed.

New Washer Console I bet the washers console was replaced. The model number tag is on the bottom, that control panel was later 80s when that color wasn't available?

I'd like to rebuild my 78 Imperial dryer, it runs ok but I hear some noise from what I imagine is the rollers. Of course my model number lookup doesn't tell me if this fits, but is this a standard rebuild kit that would work on a Whirlpool Imperial dryer model LA17881Y0...

I thought about that, but the cost of repainting the washers porcelain top is cost prohibitive. So the washer top dictates the set color.

I wish I could find a matching dryer console to the washer but I can't and due to my obsession with a matching set, I'll finish the resto on the matching washer for the dryer, take the top from the LFA (I much prefer that color, and the door poke lid switch) and then paint both the matching...

You're right The dryer is Y, the washer is G.

I'm still rebuilding the matching washer to the dryer but when I paired it with this low use LFA series I noticed how mismatched the colors were. Is this just fade on the dryer or are they actually different colors?

I've always wondered... In terms of product rank: Imperial Mark 18 Imperial Imperial Seventy Supreme 80 Supreme is that how it goes? I noticed that around 78 when the LFA series came out, that the Imperial name became Imperial Seventy, anyone know what the product line distinctions were? I'm...

very nice!

Power Cleans Rule I love my Hobart but its missing the disposal that the power clean had. You have to clean the filter on the Hobart. I would love to find an old power clean DU7903XL but I'll tolerate the Hobart until then.

Overloading... My theory is as more women began working and not staying at home, and other members of the family started doing laundry the manufactures faced more warrantee failures in their units simply due to overloading. So they made the short quick which did less damage to the machine when...

good call john I didn't even know that happened.

I can see the craigslist ad (like the vintage car finds) Ran when parked, AC just needs to be recharged.

single clunk I think I can explain the single clunk, there is a screw that holds down the cam bars if it gets loose the spin cam bar will ram into the motor making the loud clunk. Tighten it and that noise will go away.

Anyone know the part number so I can ebay find a new agitator shaft for my belt driven whirlpool? There is a bit of wear on it but I found a new spin tube.

Thanks John I don't think the bearings are bad, they feel smooth and I don't see any evidence of water in the transmission oil. How do you get the top seal out?
