    My pen name is Cal Kasheau. Hey, I'd like to shamelessly promote my literary accomplishments while I have your attention. I have several short story titles you can get on Amazon; the links are below. Some are humorous, some reflect events in my life, and some are legends I heard of as a child in the swamps of Louisiana. They are only a dollar or two, and most are free with a Kindle unlimited membership. I hope you will take the time to read one or two and give me your honest opinion in the comments on whether or not I should continue to pursue a side gig as an author.

    Back to back home runs. This video and last week's video are must viewing for anyone wanting to repair an Estate/Whirlpool direct drive washer. Chip, thank you for the time and effort you put into these videos.

    Inspired by this channel I spotted an old kenmore washer put out for trash. It was quite trashed however I took it home and found the transmission intact. I put a neutral drain kit in and put the machine back to the curb. The transmission is working great. It will be my spare. I only wish I could find a spare motor and agitator. The 3 speed motor and upper/lower agitator are discontinued.

    I screw in the bolt when I need to pound on the shaft it so it doesn’t mess up the top of it

    • @HarperandKnowles

      Yeah, I don’t often have to hit it so hard but what I really need is a long brass rod. Brass is softer than the steel and won’t flatten the transmission shaft.

    So the last one of these it spun intermittently. I checked the capacitor and it was out of spec replaced it but finally swapped out a motor and it ran like champ. What made you go straight to the clutch?

    • @HarperandKnowles

      The motor was running and I heard it shift. When I spun it by hand and got it started that was the clue that the clutch was slipping under load. Thanks for watching!
