I picked up a Maytag DG310 for a friend that's buying his first house soon, and found out after I got home that it had been converted to propane. I'm 99.9% sure my friend's house has natural gas.
The dryer seems to be in excellent condition but has not been connected to any gas supply yet. It doesn't appear to have been used in quite a while, I was told it came with the house and had been hooked up but there was no longer gas being supplied (propane tank empty I assume) for over a year but they had turned it on and it ran. Came out of an old cottage that was previously owned by two old sisters but rarely used so I'm assuming very low mileage.
It does run, but noisy (already fixed that, I believe) and I've started cleaning it out, just some lint, nothing too crazy. I'm pretty sure this is one of the older dryers I've had but it seems to be built like a tank.
What I need to do now is convert it back to Natural gas so it can be used (and so I can test it), whatever that may take (within reason of course, I'm not spending a lot on it) I've done this on a Whirlpool dryer before, but haven't honestly done a whole lot with Maytag dryers.
I've also got a Maytag Neptune MAH3000 washer that I believe needs a wax motor but I'll add details on that in the Deluxe forum. All in all, should be a decent set and last a while. I'll try for pictures after all is said and done but sadly I don't have any yet.
