Hi Folks, does anyone have a good fix for this broken timer knob? It's probably the most stupid design they could have come up with! Part is NLA, and I can't seem to find any out there. Any ideas? I've thought about glue, or a couple of screws. What a pain to removed the black part still on...

Hi All: Any idea of where to look for a Maytag timed bleach dispenser cover gasket for my old model 142? It's getting pretty dry, not leaking, but time to be replaced. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Sorry I didn't take any pics. Bobby in Boston

Hello folks, Decided to pull out the KDS-19 portable dishwasher and change the impeller seal. I got the Hobart seal kit with the larger drain impeller. Any thoughts if this larger impeller will place too much pressure on the hoses or drain solenoid? Last thing I want is a burst hose. Should...

Hello All: I would like to replace my 80's Kenmore oven gasket, but the part is supposedly NLA. Does anyone have any info on this? It is model 911 7238610. Any help is appreciated! Bobby in Boston

Hi All: I got a "new" KDS20 to replace my old one that finally rusted out and leaked. It's mint, but the motor bearing squeals. Any suggestions? I can swap the motor from my old one, but are gaskets still available from Hobart? Bobby in Boston

Hello All: I need some help with the replacement of a leaky fill valve for a Superba 20 portable dishwasher. The original part # is D- 240016, and the replacement valve from Whirlpool is #4171000. Problem is, the replacement solenoid and outlet are off to the sides, which impinges on the...

Hi All: Well, after 33 years of use the KDS 20 has finally sprung a leak due to rust in the sump. Ironically, the rust is on the vertical wall of the sump, about the size of a quarter. It is easy to access. What can be done to seal it? The rust is pretty deep- if I pressed the spot, I know my...

Hi All; Does anyone remember what parts store carries the decal that went on the front panel of the 2007 SQ washers? Also, can anyone guide me to the thread about how to tweek the water level? Thanks! Bobby in Boston

Hi All: I have a new toy: a GE (Frigidaire) front loader, the oldest model with the small porthole door. The plastic hubs that the leveling legs screw into are broken apart. Does anyone have a part#? Also, the door seems to not align with the seal properly. The bottom is a bit more open, so...

Hello All: My Magic Chef/Norge 20 pounder slowly agitates while in the neutral drain. Is this normal? Is there somthing that needs to be adjusted? Do I need to worry about it? Bobby in Boston

Hi All: Does anyone have a service manual for a KitchenAid Coffee Mill model KCM? It's the plastic body one made by Hobart. Bobby in Boston

Greeting All! I could not pass this up- only one dollar at the local cheap shop. How do folks think it rates? It's pretty low sudsing, and has a nice scent. It reminds me of Dash (remember that brand, only 3/4 cup?). Bobby in Boston

Hi All: I'm rarely on this "new" side of the forum! Question: On this model Frigidaire, should the water level be tweeked to fill higher? I don't want to damage the bearing or motor, but it seems quite stingy. What do you think? Here is the model: Bobby in Boston

Would anyone have three back panel screws with the fender washers for this old girl? The fiber back panel is loosey-goosey, making her pretty noisy during spin. I will pay any reasonable cost and shipping. Bobby in Boston

Who is our resident expert in taking these apart and assembling and adjusting them properly? I got a neat one in mint condition in Harvest gold, but it was obviously taken apart and re-assembled incorrectly. The grind selector on the bottom is way too low so the feet barely touch the counter...

I know someone was looking to find a 712 set. I can't remember who it was. Worth checking out. Bobby in Boston http://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/app/1579159537.html

Happy New Year Everyone! Last year I was perusing Craigslist and saw an ad for an "old General Electric washer, $40". It had a picture which was fuzzy, but it looked like a Frigidaire to me. I called, and a nice lady said she was sorry, it should have read General Motors! So off I went in the...

Has anyone gotten this yet? It's a great little gadget for holding the attachments. I saw it online and ordered one. Out of Boise, Idaho! Bobby in Boston

Any comments on this 80's generation Speed Queen? I might be able to get my hands on one cheap, and in very good shape. It has the SS tub. Bobby in Boston

Hi All! Now that my Christmas concert is over, I thought I would tackle the agitator on the Norge. The original one is broken at the top and is frozen to the shaft. Bobby in Boston
