I'm afraid I already know the answer to this but......are any parts available for the old (fantastic) Air Way ? Specifically, I need the yellowish / clear round
plastic piece that indicates the air flow direction....mine is broken.
I've been looking on eBay but no luck so far.
Thanks
Dave

Hi Dave:
It's called the "indicator". They were made out of celluloid, like movie film.
The only way I know to get one is to buy an entire Air-Way with a good indicator. That way, you also have spare parts like carbon brushes.

Yes, that was my thought on the indicator......the carbon "brushes" are there on mine but have slightly bent at the ends..I tried heating them to try to gain some flexibility...didn't work at all.
Thanks
dave
