Baffelectomy any negotive feedback from the results of the removal of the baffel? any dets would be appreciated!

I just had a similar problem with a mustang.. The baffel in the gas tank had broken loose.. So the gas would slosh around the tank.. I could hear the baffle in the tank moving when i would go around corners.. WHEN I WOULD MAKE A RIGHT TURN THE ENGINE WOULD DIE.. ONE OF THE THINGS THE BAFFEL DOES IS KEEP THE FUEL PUMP SURRONDED WITH FUEL WHEN CORERNING..

if you removed the baffel from the exhaust that will cause this problem, yes it will make it louder but will lose power. if the baffel is out replace it and see if that helps.

removing the baffels to decoke them is okay,but removing to improve power dosnt always work,because the carbs,the camshaft and the exhaust are pretuned to give the engine a reasonable power band at low to mid revs.no baffles will weakon the carb,move the power band up higher and bottom endcould be flat and gut less

You cannot remove the baffles without disassembling the entire tub assemblys.
To access the inside of the washer cabinet remove the two or three phillips head screws at the bottom of the front of the washer and the lower panel below the door will come off to give you access.
If your ring is anywhere it is probably caught inside the lint/debris trap #40 on the diagram. You will want to remove the entire rubber drain boot that connects between the pump and the bottom of the outer tub. Also try to reach inside the tub with your hand through the hole where the rubber drain boot connected if you do not find it in the lint trap.

I would not recommend anyone other than a skilled technician attempt to disassemble the wash tubs on this machine.
Good luck to you on this!!

forget everything .turn machine on its side and the pump is there its sites beleloy the drum about the size of a large cup open the rubber clips and take a look.adrian.,,,

oh course.....I've done this for a few people, drill out the rivets and gut it....you may want to shorten the can a little....sawzall works great........then drill out the holes and re-rivet it

Since the largest matrix you can create on the FX-115ES is a 3X3 matrix, I am not sure it is worth it to do it on a calculator.

There is no command on the calculator that allows you to do it.
You can use the calculator to evaluate the minors for each element (the determinant of the matrix that is left when you remove the column and the row that have that element as intersection).
Here is an example how to calculate the cofactor of the _11 element of a 3X3 matrix.

1. I defined a 3x3 matrix called b
2. I defined a submatrix by removing the first row and the first column of the b matrix.
   
3. The submatrix is called min11.
   
4. Its determinant is the minor of the _11 element of matrix b.
5. The cofactor cof11 of _11 element of matrix b is the product of (-1) to the the power (1+1) and the minor of the _11 element.
6. The cofactor is represented by the last result to the right of ->cof11, that means b22*b33-b23*b32. The cofactor is a number.
   
7. For additional information refer to your algebra book.

Note: The power of -1 that multiplies the minor of an element is
(-1)^(row number + column number).
coff11=((-1)^2)*det(min11) =det(min11)
cof12=((-1)^(1+2))* det(min12)=-det(min12)
cof13=((-1)^(1+3))*det(min13)= det(min13)
cof21=((-1)^(1+2))*det(min21)= -det(min21)
etc.

The fishtail tips would have to be removable to get to the baffels. And some of the baffels are not removable. i would call Samson and ask one of there tech's.

if there is ice on the back freezer wall you have a defrost problem,it is one of 3 things,defrost timer,defrost heater,or defrost sensor,if you have a meter you can check the defrost heater and sensor bt removing the back wall freezer panel,if the heater and sensor omn out good it is your defrost timer that bad-mike

Carefully un-solder.....look before you leap....damage can easily
result from improper removal / reinstall....................T.
