Hey man. Yeah about 95%. There is still some vibration, but more so with the dryer. I am not sure its leveled properly. But TBH I would rather just leave it all alone at this point instead of making it worse.
@@Sharkie626 I think that's why. Only reason I took it out is sometimes during large loads on high agitation I hear a rattling noise. Do you have any idea what that might be? Sounds like a metallic noise to be honest.
@@MatthewJames-st5wv Was anything caught in it? I'm not sure, but I can remember the newer one on the machine we used to have make said sound lightly for a few seconds on a hot wash before it make it's "gurgle" sound, and went away.
I actually love the sound of the older drain pump compared to the newer one's on these machines. They sound much smoother and less noisy in my opinion.
@MatthewJames-st5wv as time went on, stuff got cheaper and more junky. Like I mentioned before the moment my Samsung's die I will go back to these almost indestructible Kenmore's that lasted over 20 year's with proper care.
@@TRec3791 Well I know they definitely did that with the clutch. This machine came with a six pack clutch and later machines only had a three pack clutch to cut costs. FWIW, I haven’t had any issues with the newer style pumps
I love that drain pump sound! Could I see a small to medium load of sweaters on the hang dry speed with a 12 min ultra clean cycle with the 2nd rinse option?
@@vanni9283 Maybe around 96 when they changed the control panel? I'm not really sure. I think it may have been used in some very high end 1995 models. I could be wrong.
I'm glad the old pump is back. It sounds much better than the new drain pump in my opinion.
It really does.
Good to see the neutral drain works for you man. My washer rarely does that so the fabric softener is usually going to waste :/
Why don't you purchase a neutral drain kit? Its a messy job, but not that difficult if you're mechanically inclined.
That reinforcement really did the trick, looks great and awesome wash action as always.

@@MatthewJames-st5wv Thats great, I plan on trying this in my project room soon.
@@BillyLee25 that’s great man! I hope it helps. I think it has a lot to do with how sturdy your sub flooring is. I still get a little vibration
@@MatthewJames-st5wv 👍
You changed the drain pump! Oh man that sounds so much cooler.
Edit: Oh NOW I see it in the description, haha.
Haha. Yes sir. The older pumps sound so much cooler with that lower pitch
Notice with the older style pump how it drains much faster? I'm not sure if thats the pump or the fact that I removed that annoying lint disc filter.
@@MatthewJames-st5wv It's definitely the pump for sure. Not sure why though. Maybe the vanes on the impeller are a little larger.

Same here. I’m not sure why whirlpool changed it but I do know that the impeller has more fins than the newer style pumps

Perfect wash -- well done.
Thanks Pete :)
nice and awsome thats one of my favorite kenmore agitators

The old drain pump has kind of a hum in the note of 'A'.
Yes it does
The draining and spinning action reminds me of NORGE WASHERS AND THE MONTGOMERY WARDS WASHERS MADE BY NORGE.
Haha. Yes
Wow that's a lot of fabric softener.
Not really
I love it!
Shucks I miss my direct drive. One of the biggest mistakes I made in the past year was letting it go.
You can get one?
@@MatthewJames-st5wv Since I'm disabled (blind), I don't have the ability to restore them from the ground up like you do. So that's a roadblock.
@@rynerobinson903 Oh. I’m sorry man. Perhaps there are some near you that are in excellent condition that wouldn’t require restoration
Is the agitator the TA or the DAP?
The agitator in this machine is the original, the dual action agitator plus.
@@MatthewJames-st5wv When did the Triple come out? Like 97?

The Kenmore Electronic
90 Series washing
machine was made
during 1998.
The Triple Action
agitator probably
came out during
that time.
