Great machines. Under the hood they look the same for a long time, 8,10, and 12 series. There is a nice 12 series pair on Craigslist local here for 100 bux. I wish I had a huge barn just to set up a collection. I had a 712 pair from 1985-2001 and wish I would have kept them. Just one minor no...

Ive driven up and down Mainstreet over and over and STILL cant find Sainsburys!! :)

Well you certainly have no shortage of resources.. LOL Ill be anxiously waiting your solution.

Cooling fan If you purchased a 110V electronics cooling fan you could wire it straight to the L1 power source. You can find them at Radio Shack if you have one near you or online.

A few things come to mind. New address, clogged drain? Coin trapped in pump vane jostled into pump during move. Other blockage at the pump ie childs sock, underwear, other that may have gotten sucked through the sump.

YES! RUSKIN HEIGHTS TORNADO! fltcoils, Yes! That was the one. We lived in Martin City. My parents knew the people who were killed in the car that was smashed into the water tower. Our home was completely leveled and like the story you mention, my mother saw the funnel cloud and Dad and her...

Thanks for the link!

You would think they could put cooling fans on the PCB like computers, printers, etc have.

Sweet! How did you find such a huge picture of the Duet?!

Are you sure you arent just smelling residual dust and contamination from the motor area where you did the sensor fix? Looks like a magnificent job supremewhirlpol

Great contribution and work! Thanks for the great photos and descriptions.

Great job! A little initiative saved you alot no doubt!

Another reason I havent used stuff like that is because I have lived in SW Oklahoma for the past 18 years and we just dont get much rust down here compared to when I lived in Kansas City and where they salted the roads in the winter. Down here in Oklahoma we usually just sand the roads since we...

Ive heard of POR15 many times. I havent ever used it though. About 30 years ago when I worked for Nissan we had some spray on rust stopper. We had a problem with rust forming between the layers of sheet metal on the hoods and they sent us some of it and that stuff did a super job of stopping...

Combo, I dont know how well the powdercoat would hold up in a washer for sure, but it does hold up pretty darn well on the mowers considering they are exposed to lawn chemicals and wet grass stuck to the surface for extended periods. It would be a very interesting project to try. Only problem is...

Im just curious how many here have dismantled your machines with approx 4-10 years use and inspected them internally. We see plenty of folks say they use X detergent at X dosage and have no problems at all, but just because it doesnt stink doesn't mean you dont have scale building up on your tub...

3beltwesty, the powdercoating is usually done commercially. Most larger cities has a powdercoating facility. I belong to a Lawn-Boy mower restoration group and they often powdercoat the mower decks and it turns out like glass and very durable.

I just use the scoop that comes with the detergent and follow the instructions on the box. Usually it calls for one scoop for normal to one and a half for heavy soil. I use the longest cycle and the stain cycle for my uniforms hot wash cold rinse and extra rinses. When I used Persil it was 2.5...

Excellent results 3beltwesty, and I am amazed that paint held up that long. With an all steel outer tub like that I think it would be a great candidate for stripping down and having it powder coated. I bet that would last a long time. was the crust on the side hard as concrete? This stuff on...

Iheartmaytag, I havent used anything to cleanse this machine at all since I havent experienced the odors at all after radically altering the way we were doing the laundry. I had never seen scale buildup issues talked abvout before and when I saw that on the Commercail Neptune thread I had to...
