Title: select-o-matatic with tenants Post by: hipburwig on March 27, 2014, 06:09:16 pm hello once again, well I started to clean the wb-60 in an attempt to rid the old fridge smell, broken bottles, and what ever else was on the bottom and in the process found a dead mouse in the drip tray. no big deal figured I would find one. then started to clean out the old insulation from the compressor area found another one and then another on top the evap. :darn: even though they were all petrified I figured the hell with it. so i tore it apart.

Title: Re: select-o-matatic with tenants Post by: tkaz on March 28, 2014, 09:37:13 am Looking good! If the compressor and thermostat are working, then I'd leave them alone until you have a problem in the future. If I remember from my 78, you can get the compressor deck out by only removing the vending chute, leaving the vending rack in there.

I wanted to clean the whole thing really good before I use it.

Are you located in Michigan? I noticed an old Bicentennial Michigan license plate in one of the picture. If so you will have to join the MI SMC Mafia! :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: select-o-matatic with tenants Post by: georgescustompaint on April 23, 2014, 10:53:12 am good stuff
