Frigidaire Unimatic Washer WO-65-2 I found listed on craigslist.

I'm not absolutely positive if I am allowed to post something like this. If not I am sorry. I run a business parting out appliance parts so I search around craigslist all the time for local items.

I found the one in the title listed. Its not something I would be interested in but thought someone here might want it. I don't know much about vintage stuff but I thought I remember reading here it was sort of desirable.

Frigidaire WO-65-2

Thanks for posting. The symptom the seller describes sounds like the torque spring is broken and would need to be replaced with a full transmission re-operation.

Looks like the seller enjoys vintage appliances.

Yes there are two possible issues with how the seller describes "Needs to be worked on as it still agitates when it starts spinning."

#1 If the washer pulsates during the start of the spin and the tub does not come up to full speed as Ben said the clutch torque spring is broken and needs to be replaced.

#2 If the washer pulsates during the start of spin but comes up to full speed and the pulsating stops as the tub gets faster then it's the motor start switch that needs either work or replacing.

This sounds familiar.

Did anyone here get this yet?

I can guarantee...

that if the border had been open and some family health issues resolved that PhilR would have had this one in his garage a long time ago!

Ya'll may notice he hasn't been around here much lately, he has a great deal on his plate nowadays. We still hope to be able to visit with him later this year....
