Hose were old and worn. water was leaking threw.
Instead of replacing one damage hose, i decided to replace the whole piece. the second hose was old and i figure ill just take care of one problem now and prevent a future problem. it was as simple and quick, save me some money from hiring a repair man. it was also a learning experience.

Noisey water shut-off after fill cycles
I unscrewed the bottom two front phillip screws. Lifted the front panel at a right angle then popped off downward. Used a 3/8 socket to unscrew the two screws inside in the upfront corners holding the top to the sides. Pulled off the top bleach line.
Lifted the lid upward until it rested on the back wall. Unscrewed the water fill tube connected to the top side panel which to reach the inlet valve area. wrote down which color of the four wires went where. Unscrewed the back plate and disconnected the valve wires. Reversed procedure for installation. Cleaned other parts while I was in there. Installation went quick and smooth.

No cold water -- only hot
My washing machine would only run hot water. Told my husband and we were ready to call the repair man when I suggested we try to order a part. So I Googled "washing machine repair". Clicked on the first sight I saw and 'searched 'no cold water' amd immediately saw explanation of our exact problem. The solution explained that MOST of the time the problem was the water inlet valve. So I ordered the part. My husband put the part on the machine and the process would have taken less than 10 minutes however the clamp was so rusted to broke and that required a trip to the hardware store. But I suppose clamp-life does not exceed 20 years. So mission accomplished and a great big thanks to all those who explained what they did to solve the problem!

Resin balls on which the top loader lid hinges had broken.
Cleaned the cavities. Lubed them with olive oil. Inserted one ball on left side, while holding tension against that side to hold the ball in the lid and top indentations. Applied olive oil to right hand side indentation, and placed the new ball into lid indentation. Put lid down into closure cavity with ball, and with lid vertical, began pushing it rearward so as toslightly spring metal lid rolled edge and top metal away from one another UNTIL the new ball snapped into the hinge indentation in the machine cover. Done.

Tub injector hose had hole in it from rubbing on side of cabinet.
Remove front panel of machine, 2 screws at
bottom. Remove 2 bolts at top front with nut
driver and whole top can be lifted to expose
all parts. Remove injector hose clamps and
clamp new hoses in place. I replaced both
injejctor hoses while open although only one
had small hole in it. This is the only repair
done on this coin-op machine in 20 years. At
this time I did replace both drive belts but they
could have run for more years, no cracks or
breaks in belts. This machine is in a 12 unit
apartment building. We have two on them,
same age. We purchased both coin ops new
in 1987.

Slow fill cycle - Hot water barely ran into tub during fill
First I unplugged the power cord from the wall. Then I turned off the water supply shut-offs at the wall and removed the hot & cold connections at the rear of the washer. Then I removed the two screws that held the assembly in the rear of the washer. I then pulled the assembly out about 3-inches, marked the new assembly to show the proper color of wire for each lug and disconnected the four wires at the lugs. I disconnected the rubber fill hose from the assembly and removed the assembly. Next, I installed the new assembly in the reverse order. It worked fine without any leaks & saved me from buying a new washer. My old washer now gets my clothes cleaner than it has for years - much quieter and quicker too.

No tub spin, burning smell.
Partselect.com gave me a very helpful list of parts per symptom. Said that there is an 88% chance that belts were my problem. Since the machine is 200 miles away I ordered two other parts as well. Belts fixed it! Took front cover off (not totally necessary). When the machine is tilted back belts are exposed underneath. Two belts later I was up and running. This site is really great.

Intermittent water leak at the air gap when filling.
First time this part was replaced on our 30+ year old Maytag washer. Remove the front panel by removing the two screws near the bottom and swinging the panel out and away from the machine. There are two metal spring-type clips that hold the top of the panel to the top (lid panel) of the washer. Remove two sheet metal screws holding the lid panel to the side panels at the front of the machine. Lid panel is hinged at the back. Lift and swing the lid panel up and against the wall so it does not swing completely backwards. Remove the Injector hose from the top of the tub by turning about a quarter turn and lifting away. Loosen the clamp holding the other end of the hose to the inlet valve at the back of the machine. Remove the old injector hose by pulling it free of the intake valve. Save the clamp to use on the new injector hose. Finally, remove the screw at the air gap to free the old injector hose. Reverse the steps to install the new hose. It is important that the plastic box on top of the air gap faces upward. On my machine the hose clamp screw heads interfered with the side of the machine preventing proper orientation of the air gap. If so, loosen the clamps and rotate them out of the way and re-tighten.

Washing machine was making a weird churning sound during the wash cycle and was slowly leaking water from bottom.
I followed the instructions on this website to a T. You can take the front cover off and you will notice a small drip from the tub area where the Hub bearings (above the tranny) meets the washing tub. Once you've identified that the leak is indeed coming from that area and not a loose tube. Allow the washer to complete the job and drain the water. Then simply unplug washing machine before starting the process of the repair. It is very important to remember that you must have a spanner wrench before attempting to perform this repair. keywords=spanner+wrench came within two days with Prime Shipping. Also be sure to order the replacement parts from this site. It takes about 3 days to arrive however so be prepared to be without a washer for a few days. Other than that just follow the instructions provided and there is a very good step-by-step video on this site .
