Eddie’s use of dishwasher detergent to clean a percolator will work very well. We grew up with melmac plastic dishes I think my mom thought it was the best thing with five boys. The cups used to get badly stained from tea so periodically, my mom would put all the cups in the sink fill it up...

With a load of dry clothing, it wouldn’t really hurt anything if it was a quarter full of water it puts a little bit of strain on the clothing, it’s kind of a silly thing to worry about John L

Maytag halo of heat auto dry dryers Maytag first time temperature auto dry dryer was the D407 series, they were probably the last US dryer manufacturer to introduce an auto dry dryer. Maytag introducedelectronic dryness controls in the early 60s that they had a lot of trouble with so they...

Yay, glad you sorted out the timer problem, note the lower wash arm, and the other wash arms are powered by the water so once the dishwasher has pumped out the water, even if the main motor continues to run, none of the arms will move. John L

Best inexpensive dishwasher Reply number 21 while I agree these inexpensive whirlpool and Amana dishwashers are very good deal for the money. They do not clean better or last longer than the high-end whirlpool product. Yes, I like the simplicity of them but they use very cheap wet motors like...

You can use either the stainless steel silver ones or the yellow painted connectors, nothing wrong with using the 48 inch one if there’s enough room for it to fold up neatly behind the stove and not cause problems with it fitting. John L

I was working for a customer yesterday who has a three year-old pair of LG front load washer and dryer in their basement. The guy was very disappointed with the washer. He said he did a load in it when it was just out of warranty. He came downstairs and got cuts on his feet because he was in...

How old is the GE disposal? You found post a picture of it. I may have extra mounting assemblies for those. John

Nice cleanup job, it’s amazing what people do to a washing machine I took a 25 year-old pair of Kenmore direct drives out of a house two years ago and installed a new Speed Queen pair for this couple And there wasn’t one speck of dirt on the outer tub on the tub cover or even under the tub cover...

Replacing a two speed clutch on a GE filter flow washer Well done, as everyone can tell from your good instructions it’s fairly detailed thing because you have to disassemble the clutch to remove it from the motor and to reinstall it after a while GE started just selling the whole motor and...

Hi Lincoln, I’m glad you found this site washing machines dryers and other home appliances are really fun and interesting and very useful things to be interested in. I got my first washing machine when I was seven years old our neighbors had given up on their 1956 Norge timeline washer it was...

Great video Cory. Thanks for posting. It’s really amazing to see what used to go into a refrigerator, whirlpool was one of the last to have the all porcelain liner. They also assemble the entire refrigeration. System is shown and tested it for leaks before it was installed in the refrigerator...

Pink 1957 Frigidaire imperial control tower washer and dryer It’s amazing what’s still out there and showing up unfortunately, these these don’t look to be in that great shape but still worth getting and hopefully restoring. I can’t believe they installed it with the washer on the right the...

Hi Tom, Do you have a Pt# for the timer you need and the model # of your machine, I know you posted the Model # before, but I don't see it in this thread, and you said the timer # on Ebay was not correct. John L.

As Brendan mentioned, it could be one of two different design machines in the first place, it’s sort of a vague complaint. It’s not a usual complaint on a GE top load washer there could be something wrong with it., The GE models with a transmission that did not have the dual action agitator were...

Hi Tom, washer looks great. Did you buy the timer on eBay or do you still want me to look for one?

Good morning all I don’t know what happened to the pictures but here they are.
