AnswerI just removed the very same thing from my 25 year old washer yesterday, and it was very uneventfull because of a few tricks I use from when I rapaired cars. I'll give you the answer in order: 1 - Hose down each connection thoroughly with Penetrating Oil. I prefer to use the kind that foams and bubbles. Cooking oil can be used with very light heat from a torch or paint strip gun. 2 - Repeat the process 2 more times over about 3 hours. 3 - Get your tool of choice (channel lock, monkey, or Vice Grip) Make sure the grooves of the biting surfaces are clean. 4 - TURN OFF THE WATER!! Most shut offs at the washer are siezed, So turn off the main supply.Open other taps in the line to drain the system at the lowest point. 5 - Wipe the hose fittings with strong soap and water to remove the oil where your tools will be working. 6 - The method to remove a seized, threaded part is only done 1 way, and that is a quick "snap" or pulse from the user. Make sure your tool isn't too tight, crushing the cup and threads. Washing machines typically have plastic (brittle)fittings, and if you apply gradual pressure you risk breaking the plastic. 7 - Ensure you are loosening the coupler, not tightening it. LEFTY LOOSEY ----- RIGHTY TIGHTY Take a moment to consider this when you're not facing the fitting. 8 - All the hoses should come off. 9 - If this doesn't work, apply more Penetration Oil and repeat. 10 - Clean the threads with steel wool or a soapy stiff toothbrush. Use Plumbers'thread Seal tape when installing the new hose, Remember to wrap the tape clockwise or it will unravel. Try to put the new hose on HAND tight - snug and no leaks. Ensure the new hoses are not chaffing against anything, string them up in a sensible way(no kinks)for longer life. Answerget a bigger wrench! AnswerSometimes you have to replace the valve.

How do you install a washing machine?

If you are wanting to install a washing machine and the plumbing is already there, it is a cinch! Remove the old washer (Unscrew the water supply lines and unhook the drain hose). Make sure you get new water supply hoses. I like the steel braided hoses for extra strength and piece of mind. Hook up your new hoses to the correct inlets on your washer (they are marked H for hot and C for cold) Hook up your drain hose, level the washer and you are good to go! Check out the related links to get a better feel for how to install a washing machine.

You would like to direct drain the washing machine to the adjacent laundry tub should you tap into the existing drain before or after the trap for the laundry tub?

......before, but I would not recommend direct drain. The washing machine hose must extend up above the flood rim of the washing machine before entering the drain. If not, there is a possibility of sewage backing up into your washing machine.
