Default Whirlpool Washer Problem.

This is Turtle.

i have a Whirlpool Washing machine Standard with 3 or 4 different wash cycles , No digital but just regular type, and big / med /
small load selector and large capasity model. It's about 7 or 8 years old and had a new timer and water pump put on it about 1 year
ago. It worked good up till today. It just stopped doing anything at all. then i tried it again this evening and it will start to
let the water fill the tub for about 1 to 3 second and then stop all together. You push it back in and pull it back out and it will
start to fill for about 1 to 3 second and then stop doing anything. I said to myself well I'll call my washer machine man in the
morning to come see. I slammed the lide down on it to give it something to think about. The Damn thing went back to working and runs
like a charm now. i run 2 loads of clothes now and it is running real good. Here is my questions.

1) Do i still call my washer machine man to look at it ?

2) Do i wait till it quiets again ?

3) Just buy a Model that you don't have to slam the lide on to make it run ?

4) Do you just have to slam the lide on washer every 7 years or so ?

5) How often should you change washers and drier out ? both are Whilpool.

I don't have time to play with it and the washer machine man does charge reasoniable rate and knows what he is doing. I just don't
work on washers and drier and I'm not starting now. I do HVAC and Refrigeration work and i don't like working on washers and driers.
