Our Maytag dishwsher is a similar vintage and we went through the same exercise, including a phase when I just wanted to pitch it. But after replacement of one part inside the tub w/filters- called an accumulator- it works like new. I'm attaching a pic to this email which I expect will be stripped from list distribution. The accumulator is under the main wash arm, and is basically one piece that includes most everything you see at the base exclusive of the wash arm. Cost was ~ $40 and replacement time was ~ 10 minutes. I got mine locally but there are several online sellers that have really nice parts listings w/drawings and/or schematics to confirm what you've got.
