I returned to my summer home in Pennsylvania to a maytag washer that

leak
coming from a gasket between the tub and motor. It only leaks when
tub
is full and turning.

So I put the washer up on blocks and put a pan un der it to catch the
leak. I ran it with the front cover off to watch the leak. Now -
guess
what - it will not leak a drop. I am thinking that putting it up on
stable blocks instead of the padded carpet may have balanced it a
bit.
I still want to repair that gasket.

Is this a hard job? Should I just call a repair man? Is this major or
minor?

I am currently using the washer with a pan under it - but right now
nothing is leaking into the pan.
