Last night Stephen K and I made alot of progress on my 1-18. It needs a new bellows so we reomoved the agitator and started the various parts soaking to get the old lime residue off. The bolt that's removed to get the old bellows off is being stubborn so it's soaking in some WD40. We also tightened the belt which was way loose. Now to keep scrubbing those rollers with butayne and steel wool, finish the belows replacement, clean the gunk from the tub ring where the spray holes are and they'll be another 1-18 up and running. I'll try to post some pics this weekend while we work.
