RE: your olfactory loss
Have you tried zinc, 25-50 mg ?
Love the close ups of the controls, but gaga over what must be a Blackstone Temp Control on the right. Never seen one in person, a dream machine for me.
Speaking of smells, the scent of Dash produced during the late 60's & 70's is my favorite scent. How could I get some? I am forever sniffing the boxes and jugs in the detergent aisles, hoping that Proctor And Gamble will re-issue that scent under another label.

tom, there's a similar washer out in AZ. From what I could tell with playing with the timer dial, you set the wash temp and let it fill to the water level set and once filled, advance the timer to the wash minutes. First on timer was hot and then warm.
HI Tom & Bob
Not quite correct Bob, on the wash control, the control works just like a Westinghouse, you advance the dial to hot or warm and the machine starts from there and fills with either hot or warm and then when the level control is satisfied the timer motor kicks in and goes through the cycle.
The timer on this machine is like no other I have heard yet. Robert seems to think it's broken but it appears to work just fine.
It advances in a deep SNAP sound and there is no whirring or ticking between snaps. It just sits there and then goes snap to the next increment. Snap!
And I think it was definetly a low use machine because the clutch is still hefty, when you first load the machine dry and start it it goes into spin as it fills!!
Bendix designed that in because they wanted to distribute the clothes evenly after drain, they wanted a slight increase in tub speed when the last water was drained out before the spin solenoid kicked in. They patented this idea as a type of clothes balancing act before spin.
If you get a heavy use machine the clutch gets warn down to the point this pick up in speed no longer happens once the tub is empty.
Anybody else ever experience this in a Bendix?? Or the snap timer?? Is Robert right,that I've got a bum timer on my hands??
