Well my turbopower hasn't been feeling very well recently, it wasn't sucking anything up!!
So I started the refurb of it...
Off comes the hood

Yay it's together- I gave it a little run around and it runs perfectly with a considerably higher level of suction than ever before- this strip down did it a world of good!!
