I bought an Electrolux model G from a member on here and the original back wheels were broken off and shattered beyond repair! There was one thin layer of deflated bubble wrap on it. It was also shipped next to another vacuum, so very tight fit package. I'm just upset that the original wheels are now garbage, history lost! Also upset because my husband had to buy me ugly replacement wheels that don't match! At least he restores cars for a living and can match the paint. Oh yeah, and the wheel shafts were bent too! My husband also is a metal fabricator so he re-straightened them! I feel so sorry for "Tealy" that he now lives in our bedroom with "Ollie" the Olympia One! :) -Michelle

Dircik, don't use epoxy. is DOES NOT BOND to that type of plastic these late 70's early 80's powermates are made of. my dupe 2997 had one of the fins crack. with epoxy it still fell right off. believe it or not, use testors model cement, itll actually melt and fuse the two parts back together. that worked fantastically.

Hey D.T, Your teacher in the ways of Kenmore LIVES in Florida! I wouldn't be talking bad about his beloved state! One day you might need wiring directions for one of your beloved cleaners.....Let's say i play the Revenge Card! "Connect motor black to power-nozzle neutral.....Cord hot to motor neutral.....", You might just need that fire extinguisher! But don't worry, I wouldn't intentionally cause the destruction of an old Kenmore.....or would I?
Good luck in getting her back in shape, Be sure to write down the wiring diagram |
