Maytag agitator oil leak
My Maytag washer is leaking a black oil during wash cycle which smears on
our clothes, etc. I have removed the agitator and cleaned the oily buildup from the shaft. As I wiggled the shaft, the oily fluid came out of the shaft hub top. I removed the little washer ring which covers the seal which seems to be where the fluid comes up from. Does the seam need replacement or is it more involved than that? Shaft bearing replacement? How does one remove the hub, etc. Thanks Roger |

Transmission IIRC _________________ How does one remove the hub, etc. Call a repairman; not being facetious, that's my best advice, been there. BTW, don't wash anymore clothes, the oil/grease won't come out of them. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.
