I've regretfully decided to get rid of my 1967 Fluid Drive washer- have had no luck in fabricating a replacement hose, as I asked about in thread # 37543.

Thanks for the replies, and help offered, but sadly I don't have enough time to continue to attempt fixes, only to find that they haven't worked so I'm offering it on Ebay for a minimal price and loads of spares, to be picked up by the lucky buyer.

If you'd like to see the details, go to Ebay Australia, and look for item # 300655214567, or try the URL.

BTW, I've bought a new Simpson 5.5kg washer as a replacement, which is extremely light and flimsy in comparison to the FD, but I guess most modern machines are...

Yours regretfully, Alan.

Yes, it's the end of an era..

I've not had such a quick sale before, but considering the price, it's not that surprising. I'm assuming the buyer is an appreciator of the FD, otherwise they wouldn't be buying such a lot of heavy old stuff!

I may re-join the ranks of old washer owners.. sometime.

Cheers, Alan
