Wow, nice condition 101P, Maytag washer
That’s really in great condition for its age, pretty much all older Maytag automatics leak oil from about 1968 back and some there after when they get really worn.
Hi Christopher, if you think that Frigidaire dishwasher is kicking your butt wait till you start working on this Maytag this could be a couple year project if you’re going to actually take it apart and fix the oil leak This was an entirely different Maytag automatic before 1956. There’s only one part interchangeable on this Maytag with later ones and that’s the drive belt. John. | ||

That, and the transmission gasket (plus the gear set) ;)
This 101P is in cosmetically in really nice shape. More than likely it will need new mercury switches and the whole drive side of the mechanism completely rebuilt (hence, fixing the oil leak). The clutch is probably filled with oil from the transmission. If I didn't already have the 102 I would have grabbed this over the weekend. Ben | ||

Capehart vs Maytag Early Capehart television sets, while high end and able to render a beautiful picture (for their time), are also notoriously complicated to repair, and they weigh a ton. Our family's first TV set, a 1951 Capehart model 325, was stored in the attic at my parents' house. After deciding to have my 1950 Admiral 20x10 bakelite consolette revived (just a simple re-cap, per the local electronics guy I brought it to), I let the Capehart go at my mom's estate sale 15 years ago. The Admiral takes up a fraction of the space, provides a nice picture on its original CRT, and is easy to move. I think it's more desirable to collectors as well. While Capeharts are relatively rare and beautiful, the stories of exasperation with troubleshooting their chassis on the Antique Radios forum resulted in my having no regrets about parting with mine.
The subject Maytag will be a cinch to restore in comparison. | ||
