well today at a estate sale i picked up a couple maytag washing machine motors that seem to be complete(i hope) and a two cylinder in a box with a parts manual(service)
this is meant to be my interest into a local old iron show. i dont want a multi hundred pounder so these maytags can fill the bill for now.

so i need a few maytag guru,s to set me on the right course to getting them running and cleaned up. and the 3rd back together maybe even some guidance to a supertive forum on the subject cant hurt.

You want to be sure to use 30wt Non Detergent oil in your fuel mixture. I believe that they want to be at a 16 to 1 ratio.
