Hi all! I thought I'd give a quick update on my Maytag portable pair. The washer is doing fine, no complaints so far. As you might remember, the dryer had a broken belt that driven the fan on the back of he drum. Well I fixed that problem with three VERY large O-rings. Sorry if the picture is a...

I have a WP DD washer and I'm wanting to retrofit the clutch to be magnetic and since that, it could have a spin drain transmission instead of the dumb neutral drain transmission. Anyone have one for sale?

I have a WP DD washer and the spin clutch seems to be getting weak... I'm wanting to modify it to be a magnetic clutch that NEVER, EVER, EVER wears out. Since it never wears out, it could be a spin drain machine, so what can I do to bypass the neutral drain assembly w/o making it spin while...

I was just wondering what type of laundry detergent you recommend for oily and greasy stains because sometimes we have some clothes that have some gasoline or kerosene or something along those lines spilled on it. What type do you recommend to get the the greasy smell out of them to get it out...

For all you PEZ lovers, I found this: a 2 pound variety flavor box of PEZ. Many flavored in it, about 103 rolls in it. You can find it on Amazon for about $20. To find it , search ‘‘pez candy’’, then look around until you find this: it will say 2 lb. variety flavor gift box, PEZ or something...

I got a Maytag DE50 (porta dryer) with my A50 (porta washer) and no air blows out. Took machine apart, and here is the belt that dives the fan: Does anyone know where I can get a new belt? Please tell me if you can find one.

I got a new Maytag porta washer and I saw water under the machine. I looked inside, and what do you know, the spinner seal leaks. Can I POSSIBLY find one?

My new maytag washer(a50) is pretty good. I have been encountering a problem with it, though. When I drain the washer, the spinner makes a whine noise, similar to feedback on a microphone. Again, your supposed is GREATLY APPRECIATED!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!

Does ANYONE have a Maytag twin tub? I'd really like to have one. I would like one close to my area. I saw one in Ohio and the shipping alone would be about $300!

Does anyone know the part # or cost for the new GE hydrowave washer drum? Also, does it have the mounting hub that's the same for the old profiles? Our old one has a plastic drum and I'd like to upgrade it to a stainless steel one. Thanks!
