What a beautiful, wonderful machine. That's my favorite Maytag right there, love the slower agitation and the blue colored panel, love the white on this model. In the past I could always take or leave Maytag, but this one I'd keep for sure.
If finally got around to taking it for a brief test run today and she runs like a top! I wanted to make sure the transmission agitates before I did a lot of rustproofing. My POR 15 should be in tomorrow, so I'll spend the weekend touching up the inner tub. I'll do a proper video with clothes after it's all done! Meanwhile, I'm really happy that the transmission works as it should with no leaks!
I finally have the transmission swap done, along with a few other small issues! My $5 pitman transmission runs like a top! I made a Youtube video featuring Downy Fabric Softener!
