Question Oil leak
Brand: Kenmore
Age: More than 10 years

I was just cleaning behind and under my washing machine and noticed a large amount of oil underneath. I haven't had any problems with the machine running at all. It's a Kenmore 70 series Super Duty Plus. I'm not quite sure of the age as it was a hand me down from a family member. I'm just wondering if this is something fixable, how I determine where the oil is coming from, and is it worth fixing or would it be more cost efficient to replace the machine? Thanks for the help!

Can you please supply your model number?

Kenmore is made by different manufactures for Sears so the model number will give a breakdown of the washer to see the transmission.

Default model number

The model for my machine (not sure which one, if either, is it)

Under the lid says Style Master 902202

Or there is a metal plate with the number 82370120

If neither of these are them, where else would I find it?
