Hello guys. Writing from Southern Sweden. I've managed to find a almost mint condition Hoover wringer washer. Yeay! :-) But, the bakelite on the pump impeller was in pieces. Would a Hoovermatic nylon impeller have the same 6 mm diameter axel? Thank you. | ||

I can't answer your question but WOW, what an absolutely amazing find!! Is this normal, I mean, were these machines commonplace in Sweden? If not, how on earth did this end up there and remain in mint condition?! Have fun with it. | ||

Hoover Single Tub
I will join the the congratulations in the condition of this washer, it looks excellent and this machine could be well over 50 years old. I am afraid I cannot answer you question either but I will refer the thread to a friend who may know.
Could you kindly post some more pictures please particularly of the control knob on the side as it appears that this machine may have had a wash timer which is something I have never seen on this washer before. Hoover exported machines all over mainland Europe as far as possible, I have some internal sales literature at home featuring the earlier 0307 model being sold in Denmark Thank you Al | ||

Thank you so much for posting these pictures, you have confirmed what I thought about the wash timer.
I have alerted friends about your posting and I hope they will come in soon with some answers. It may be just as easy to replace the whole pump - this style was used on for thirty years on various machines. There should also be a rubber "tyre" around the pump pully makes the pump turn with the main motor - you will need this too if the pump is to work. Woudl you be so kind as to translate the words in picture no. 6 please And congratulations for getting such a rare machine at a great price, you should be very pleased indeed. Al | ||

That doesn't look like a Hoover impeller at all, looks more like a Maytag one but I am no expert and am sure that someone will point you in the right direction. | ||
