    Kit ordered Thanks I placed an order for the newer type seal. Do you by any chance have the p/n for the enamel tub seal? Here's a pic of an old Aussie laundry in Greenwich, Sydney. The machine is a 1980 Hoover 725

    500 and 600 outer tub seals Hey Baily I saw in your second link (reply 40) main tub seal for 500-600 enamel tub machines. I was under the assumption that these had been discontinued? Is that not so? I had better get one of these too. Also not sure where the porous bush went ... And do you...

    Thanks so much I will order the kit asap and get started. Thank you for the write-up, it is really helpful and the cleaning pointers were good too. I suppose you know this: placing the fill control switch in Special Woolens in any part of a Normal cycle locks the timer where it is. It also...

    hoover 720-920 tub seal question

    just putting it out there: anyone know what the part details are for the MAIN TUB SEAL for the newer top loaders (720-920)? it is what the drive shaft spins in. My seal has started to perish: there is a squeal on spin and some resistance keeping the drum from accerating to full speed. Thanks...

    Blackstone tranny oil leak

    Hi all, The old old Hoover top loader I got a little while back seems to have an oil leak from the transmission. The machine looks as though it hardly got much use over its life as the inside of the cabinet hardly had any oil splattered on it AT ALL. It's been my apartment's washing machine...

    Thanks Guy! Yeah that's an original 1976 floor in my laundry. Actually that's the last time the apartment was renovated. It was built in 1967 and had a do up in 76. I'll get some pics for you guys - the kitchen has a (then) top of the range Custom deluxe range by Frigidaire and some other...

    Thanks Fred I live in Sydney and Hurstville isn't too far away from me. I'm at Wollstonecraft. Thanks for the mark up of the pump. The pump on my machine was replaced in 1999 and doesn't have a rubber impeller, it's plastic. Another point of difference to the pump that you described is that...

    Thanks John Really appreciate you looking into the Blackstone pump for me. I'd be interested in whatever you have - might be able to piece somethings together if you only have non-operational stuff, etc. Thanks once again!!

    Thanks Baily Have had it apart and can't get the impeller off the shaft - either it doesn't come off or I don't have the right tools. So I think I will have to go with the drilled hole and oil. I'm thinking that the pump seal is up near the impeller? When I tried to take it apart I could see...

    Here's my Custom Deluxe from Sydney Hi, just saw your post. Congrats on the new range!! Just thought I'd show you a pic of my grandma's range. It's a 1967 Frigidaire Custom Deluxe. I've inherited the apartment it's in and it isn't going anywhere. So many great things have been cooked on it 😀😀

    Thanks Fred! The pump has started to sieze up. I've pulled it apart; there is nothing obstructing it at the impeller. It seems that the friction is coming from the drive shaft. So I'll try your method of drilling a hole. Just don't want to create a leak! I have attached pics of the pump -...

    Thanks Baily!! Ta for all your helpful info. I'm impressed with your gearbox knowledge and agree, that static pump out with clutch at 100% slip is amazing. Surprised it's lasted so long. Actually I don't think the 620 I've got had seen much use. The inside of the cabinet was almost spotless...
