    New Old Stock - Kitchenaid KD-12P - first steps?

    i don't see how a pump seal could possibly be fabricated out of cork or rubber. that seal is a ceramic rotary seal that spins with the motor shaft. again, as your machine is basically new it should not be worn. for the future if this machine ever starts leaking and can't be fixed and you still...

    Frigidaire 1-18 leaking

    Thanks for info I just found that outer bellows on e bay as well as 2 other parts sources. I googled part no. And was very surprised to see these bellows so available. Now to find an agitate arm or the bearing part of it that the agitate shaft screws into. Looks like your 1-18 will be an easy...

    cool looking old dryer on marketplace

    not that familiar with dryers but it's a whirlpool imperial from the 50's i would guess. although it's listed with a washer and says 1962? this one someone will probably want! https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2865993887008211/

    thought i was done collecting until i saw this!!!!!!

    i've got a lot of dishwashers and i definately don't need more! but i don't have a whirlpool vintage model, until now! i've got kitchenaids, g.e, hotpoint, sears kenmore, frigidaire, modern maid, kelvinator, montgomery ward, and a maytag. found this beautiful machine on facebook marketplace...

    New Old Stock - Kitchenaid KD-12P - first steps?

    sometimes i even flip my machines over and hand turn the motor just to make sure the motor turns freely and the pump seal isn't frozen as i call it. i have had that happen a few times where after sitting it binds up and it takes a bit more force for me to break the motor loose. that's why a lot...

    Why Did Older Dishwasher Have Such Enormous Motors?

    i'm of the old school i have a lot of old dishwashers and the bigger the motor and the more water they use the better in my book! but i'm into them for the nostalgia of it. the old hobart kitchenaids had 1/2 hp motors, the gold seal motor they called it. i have a bunch of kitchenaids, over 20...

    New Old Stock - Kitchenaid KD-12P - first steps?

    beautiful machine would love to see pics of inside. if it's never been used it should be a good shape i would think. what we usually do is put some hot water in tub, enough to cover bottom of sump so the motor seal can soak a few minutes before starting it up. i do this on all my machines...

    18" Vintage Dishwasher

    as long as the tub is in good shape if i do find one i should be able to get it going regardless. i have plenty of pump seals, 2 extra motors, and a couple complete pumps. i'm gonna keep looking! as far as mine being a frigidaire, not sure. it's sold under the montgomery ward signature logo...

    KitchenAid KDS-15

    if you don't mind waiting a bit i'm sure that motor will pop up on ebay again, that's how i get most of my parts, just keep looking! actually there is one listed now but it's way overpriced! 300 bucks, that's ridiculous in my book! i bought a new motor for a 17 model and paid about 100 one...

    18" Vintage Dishwasher

    i very rarely see those 18 inch models for sale. i looked for years for one of the 18 inch D&M machines, finally found one in kentucky, then the guy wrote me and said it had frozen and cracked the pump so i didn't pursue it. i did find one about 9 years ago up in troy ohio that i bought for...

    KDS-18 needs loving home!

    sorry to take so long to answer. i live in both columbus and milford so i'm back and forth almost every other day and sometimes don't hop on this website for a couple weeks at a time. if a spray arm isn't rotating (i have had that problem) it can probably be fixed easy enough. i usually just...

    KDS_16 suddenly making weird noise

    i love the 15s, 16s, 17s, much more than those 18-20 models. even with one spray arm on the bottom if you load it right it will clean! i have rebuilt these pumps many times, just bought another pump seal off ebay last week for about 10 bucks. as said they are easy to work on, easier than...
