When I went to do another load, it started leaking soapy water from underneath the machine. Can this be the gasket under the drum? Perhaps it disintegrated after the 1st load because it dried out over the past two years? I don't know, and I NEED my washer! Any suggestions as to what to look for, and what part I may need? Thnx!

Look for leaks in the tub to pump and pump to discharge drain hoses. Could be a leaking pump. If it's coming down around directly under the center of the tub, the tub seal may be faulty.
