Car Gear

skahhh asked:


a dryer? I have a dryer whose replacement belt was only about 1/4″ wide and which rides on a pulley nearly double that width. The new belt squeals the plastic pulley tensioner wheel because it rides pretty much on one side of the pulley and so that plastic pulley has not “worn in on the new belt.

I am thinking of finding a belt that is the right length and a width that will fit the old tensioner pulley and motor, or buying a new tensioner pulley wheel that might fit that would serve a better purpose than the old one.

Any suggestions?

Considerations that I can see are that the belt should be able to stand a temperature that it would see when the heating element is energized, but an automobile belt would probably suffice, don’t you think? I could just measure the length of the belt and combine that with a tensioner pulley/motor pulley width and get one that works?
The belt for my dryer is what Whirlpool sells for a replacement. Evidently they feel that that belt equals the task for a replacement belt. I measured my old belt and it is 93 1/4″ long and 3/8″ wide verses the new belt length of 92 1/4″ length and 1/4″ wide.

The tensioner pulley will allow both belts to ride on it. So evidently the size is not important to them. New belt provided same from several parts stores for my 17 year old Whirlpool dryer.

But, to me, that is why I am getting a little squeel out of my tensioner pulley. I squirted a little WD-40 to quiet it down and make sure it was coming from that point today. It was and the WD-40 did quiet it down a little. There is some grease on that bushing that I put there when I last serviced my dryer that make work itself in with the oil. I may use some heavier duty oil and or some grease to quiet it down some more.

I wrote an email to Whirlpool about that new belt and another problem where the touchpad (electronic) wil
I wrote an email to Whirlpool about that new belt and another problem where the touchpad (electronic) will not CANCEL.

The CANCEL button works with an ohmmeter checking it by itself, but there is a short in the microcomputer for some reason. Other touch pad functions work fine, although they didn’t before I removed the microcomputer assembly and cleaned it with alchohol and q tips and paper towels and a paint brush.

I am wondering if I left a little alchohol in that assembly while cleaning it.

I have looked at the number of decks and the number of cars on each one and am convinced that they are some kind of Tardis. The cars just keep rolling in.

I know its a silly question but I saw a truck today with cars loaded on it and the doors were so close to the edges, how can a person fit out of the car without banging the door?
And, when they load the cars into shipping containers, how do the people get out of the car without banging the door?
Does anyone know?
