      Man, I haven't seen a sudssaver valve in more than 40 years
      I might have one of those 350367 pumps laying around somewhere.

    Bought one of those used from a nice Mexican couple in Dallas for $75 in 1977 - drug it halfway across the country and used it another 10 years!

    I wouldn't worry about the noise. The washer is from the 60s.
    And man... I didn't know washers like these existed back then.
    Love how the control panel lights up.
    The solid state electronics were and is still reliable compared to today's standards

    Fixing that washing machine 🙌 is just about like fixing a classic car 🚗 that has been out in a field, or in a barn for 45 years. The part that counts, is getting either one into perfect 👌 running condition. The only part that got to me, is turning the washing machine upside down, or laying it down. It's often said not to do so, for that the oil can leak out of the transmission. GREAT JOB 👍, and video length. Your friend, Jeff.

    Hey how's it going? I have a huge favor to ask. I want to replace my moms super old washer back in the UK/Ireland. There are limited options there top load wise with there being two whirlpools and only one maytag top loader. Is there any way you would be able to check out those online for me and recommend one? I would really appreciate it. Failing that I would be more than happy to import one across from you guys if thats possible. Appreciate it in advance. I know its a big ask.

    Short of washing your laundry in a river and beating it on a rock to remove excess water; there is no such thing as an antique washer.🎉

      @@Thedonsmoney25823 I know the belt on my aunts lady Kenmore machine broke off many years ago and she had it fixed . My moms machine almost the same problem and we had the same machine as my aunt had. The Sears repair man tightened the old belt to tight that it recked the bearings in the tub. We also needed a new pump because access water would stay in the tub . That was the problem to begin with. This is dating back to the 80s . We wound up getting a new machine back in 1983. Bought the whirlpool with the surgilator agitator

    Wow, seeing that much water in this washer seems soooooo wrong now, although this is when clothes used to “get really clean” and smell clean, not like todays washers where the clothes smell sour and towels smell like, well, what is that stink. Sad if you think about it. Just miss the olden days.

      Yea because today's impeller blades aren't as tall and long compared to back then. I don't know how they came to the conclusion this is better than the washer impeller back then
