    Discharge Hose for Washer
    My discharge hose became disconnected from my wash machine and I am trying to re-connect it. The connection is far inside the back bottom of the wash machine. I thought I reconnected it with force, and it wasn't leaking at first, but now it is (from the front and back). It is a very old maytag. Is there a tool that would help me reconnect it more securely or that I am supposed to be using anyway?

    As I recall my washer discharge hose was secured by a spring type hose clamp, (see image). They can be a bear to install in a tight area.
    Why not get a regular hose clamp, (see image) and install that instead. Good luck, Tom
