So I have my grandmothers Kenmore. I changed its bag, and filter. i sucked up Lysol cotton balls and drier sheets. I even put dryer sheets on both filters. i have scrubbed the hose, bag chamber, and motor. It helped some, but it still reeks. Any idea's? It was in the attic for 10 years and the bag was nearly 20 years old when I got it

.
same color and all, tear down and wash away i say. I just did a similar Kenmore that took a full disassembly..except motor. That is i opened the case but didn't take apart the motor itself, and hosed, washed, and compressed aired everything. Dog smell(!) is completely gone. I'll link the thread i posted below.
