Probably easier to retrofit a new valve. I haven't seen a rebuild kit since Allied Appliance Parts blew up. (Oh, it isn't that bad-I have seen 'em. it's just so much easier to go with a new one) |

I was able to find them at Sundberg appliance parts - they were for commercial machines but worked perfectly in my Maytag combo valves. Valve rebuild kit: #A7438K2 (RK1000) $5.15 ea. (retail $ may be higher) CLICK HERE TO GO TO gansky1's LINK |

Greg is that kit for the large style rubber seats or the standard size rubber seats? I'm thinking Chris might mean for the large style rubber seats which I don't believe are made anymore, but I could be wrong. It would be great to get rebuild kits for the really vintage valves. Normally I just replace old valves with new ones, but if there is a flow washer in the output of the valve, you need to take the old washer out of the old valve and install it in the new valve. The flow-washer slows down the rate of fill for solid basket washers in order to prevent overfilling. |
