Sounds like Jimmy is pretty handy and should be able to do the job. Where I live there's a place called Dayton Appliance Parts and they sell parts for just about every appliance there is. I nursed our Maytag washer to it's 25 b-day. Finally broke down and bought a Neptune. The dryer has been rebuilt many times with parts from DAP. <BR/><BR/>On a dryer, when it takes longer and longer to dry it means there is no air circulation. Do the clothes feel warm? If not it could be the element is shot, but my bet is on a clogged up dryer. First thing to check on the dryer is if the vent hose is full of lint. Easiest way to clean it out is get the leaf blower and stick in there as far as it will go and turn it on. Then clean up the lint from the yard. Next take the hosing apart and clean it of call lint. ShopVac works great to do that.<BR/><BR/>I clean my drier and vent hose in the spring and in the fall. The spring clean is always worse than the fall. We hang clothes outside in the spring and summer. Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10923482.post-1150986448139351872006-06-22T09:27:00.000-05:002006-06-22T09:27:00.000-05:00Sorry Mom....that sucks.Oh, my Yahoo wasn't workin...Sorry Mom....that sucks.<BR/><BR/>Oh, my Yahoo wasn't working yesterday either...so it wasn't just you!

It is the most important part and usually the most expensive. We had ours replaced after 10 years last summer. <BR/><BR/>Water was leaking just like you said.<BR/><BR/>I can't remember how much it cost of hand. But, it was less than the price of a new washer, but not by much!Duezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13297380628744711569noreply@blogger.com
