I got a customer in a nice section of Kenner, same set. They are the original owners. When I changed the dryer igniter I was the first person to open the machine up.

(the paint was still on screws) The belt was still in great shape, the igniter just wore out.

Those machines were built to last forever.

i have to admit the process for changing the damper pads was a PITA. i think i posted it on the OT but its funny the OFFICIAL maytag repair guide also mentioned getting a 4x4 block and setting the machine down on it to raise the tub assembly enough to remove the old adhesive and install new ones. Also the use of humor was surprising for a 'serious technical guide' for repair. I might have enjoyed being a maytag repairman in the 80s.

i was comforted by the fact that i probably wont have to do that again for another 30 years.
