old seal was shot
New seal arrived basically folded in half for shipping. Was advised to use hair dryer and/or hot water to restore original shape. Neither worked. I installed it anyway and am waiting (3 days so far) for it to seal (so far, no luck). I'll give it another day or 2, re-install the old one and write off the $75

The refrigerator stopped running
I was told to order the run capacitor and the technician thought it would repair the refrigerator; but it did not. The appliance technician had to take the run capacitor off and install what he called a "hard start" and the refrigerator is operating right now.

Having patience and plenty of time
The refrigerator never gave me any trouble. It's at least 25 years old. It runs like new now. The gasket can be softened, gently using a hairdryer. The key is to attach the gasket to the refrigerator and use a hairdryer, going back and forth the length of the gasket. Then, to stop using the hairdryer and with the hands pull (gently) on the gasket, the length of the gasket straightening and making the gasket wider so it attaches to the refrigerator as it cools. Then look for gaps and places where air is escaping and repeat, until a good seal is achieved. This is so much better than buying new, and in 10 years buying new again with planned obsolescence.

Missing crisper drawer support post
I recently bought an old Amana refrigerator for my garage on CraigsList for 75 bucks. It was in great condition for its age, but was missing the post that supports the fruit and veggie crisper drawers. I did a Google search, quickly found PartSelect, and just as quickly located and ordered the missing part, which was reasonably priced. PartSelect promised it woud be delivered in 3-5 days by FedEx Ground and it was. I took it out of the box, removed the crisper backets - and glass cover for them - installed the post and WHA-LA, the crisper backets work just as good as when the fridge was new! Couldn't have had an on-line mal-order operation go any slicker!
