Is there any way to fix or replace the agitator shaft in the old Maytag Helical transmissions? If you've seen my previous threads I'm fixing up an old Highlander and unfortunately the agitator shaft is just too far gone to make a seal. I've done my searching online and can't find one either. Not...

If you recall a while back, A Maytag Highlander was posted for free in San Antonio which I picked up. Well I've been slowly working on it, and getting that tub nut out was a PAIN! But the progress has been amazing so far! Pictures to follow... Picture 1 is the Tub and tub ring before cleaning...

So I picked up a matching set of Kenmores yesterday for a song with the intention of fixing up and using the dryer, and fixing and selling the washer. I paid for the dryer, the washer was thrown in for free. The washer is direct-drive, but looks to be late 80's or early 90's? The dryer is a...

So I have the new motor for the 1960 Highlander and before I stick it in there tomorrow, i have a quick question about the wiring. Old motor is apparently a 70's replacement (round "servicible" type motor with the 70's /// Maytag logo). Old motor has the following wire colors: -Orange -Red...

Well I finally got that old agitator out of the Highlander! What a PITA that turned out to be... The motor failed with a full load of clothes and water, and the tub was allowed to just dry out by evaporation......NOT FUN! So the agitator shaft was crusty and had hard water deposits all over it...

When I moved to this house in 2006, the original appliances conveyed with the house. It was built in 1999, and I'm assuming the washer and dryer were bought when the original owners moved in. The washer and dryer were Kenmore and were matched, but of course the washer being a Shredmore died a...

Well we went to San Antonio today to pick up the Highlander that was advertised as needing a new home. The place was easy to find, and we picked it up and hauled it off. So here's the thing....it needs a motor. Is there anything special I need to find for it? Everything turns freely underneath...

Well I got the Filter-Flo today, but we're having an inexplicable problem. It runs great and does a teriffic job washing. But if it does a heavy load, or does several loads in succession, the motor turns off somewhere around the "Rinse" section of the cycle. The power doesn't die and the timer...

This is my first time posting here, so I apologize if I posted in the wrong section... Does anyone know where I can find a fabric softener dispenser for a GE filter-flo? I'm getting an early 80s model that's got everything BUT the dispenser. I don't wanna have to resort to the Downy ball if I...
