I ordered a door gasket, WH08X10036, which is supposed to be the replacement for WH08X10022. The new gasket has this thick protruding tab at about 1 o'clock that keeps it from going on completely. If it did go on it would rub against the rotating drum. It's also a much tighter fit than the old gasket. I was thinking of cutting the tab off but if it still doesn't work, I can't return it. Any suggestions?

I am not sure that the tab should be there, and it sounds like maybe you got a defective gasket or the wrong one. That part number checks out, so check with your supplier and see if they will exchange it. There are some pics on the service manual which may also help. http://appliancejunk.com/ge/washer/31-9135.pdf

Thanks for the reply and the link. I suspect that all the part numbers are correct and the gasket in the box is wrong. The supplier will take a return. I just don't want to through this several times. Thanks again.

Ok, good. Let us know how it turns out. These gaskets on front loaders are a real problem, so we need all the info we can get.
