Not to Hi-Jack the GE thread, but WP built BD washers had the fastest fill of any Automatic Washer I have ever seen, when set for warm water fill they filled at 8-10 gallons per minute, and a warm spray rinse was this same rate of fill, this is why WP pulsed the spray rinse, otherwise the fill rate could easily overwhelm the pump out ability.
Back to the unused 1962 GE FF washer, have you fired it up yet Robert ?
