Would anyone happen to have a timer knob for a mid-70's Frigidaire 1-18 The part number is 1128999 or 1128998. I'm also looking for a fabric softener dispenser. Thank you. Jeff |

The fabric softener, I found, plays a inadvertent role in washing. As much as I love my 1-18's, they are easily susceptible to overloading and that adversely affects rollover.
Heavy fabrics like blue jeans tend to ride up on the agitator. However, with the fabric softener on that helps to prevent this from happening as it pushes down on items that are riding up and aids them in staying in the water and rolling over. Anyone else discover this bonus of the fabric softener as well?. Unfortunately, the tabs broke off of my softener, so now I have to be extra cognizant to not overload or things will ride up on the agitation and not get clean. |
