Very nice George - you certainly spent a bit on this one, a full overhaul. Was it the one you got from VacManTim? |

lol - I bet VacManTim wants it back now! Should be good for another few years use, providing the motor is OK. Did you check the carbon brushes on the motor? |

Yes I stripped it right down to the motor. Commutator isn't too black and carbons aren't Too bad lol, took a while to get the thing out of this motor housing thing thought lol. |

That's a hell of a lot of rust - were these vacs left outside, or subjected to flood damage? They look like DC04 motors? |

Bet you could get that running. I picked an 04 out of a skip in almost that condition, and after some hammering and wire will it ran! Did spark like a mutha though! |

Hi Steve, I have no idea what happened to the Dysons before I got hold of them. The YDK motor was dry when I opened the machine up. When I switched on the DC04 with the Amtek motor in it started spitting out water. I very quickly switched it off. Both motors came from DC04s. One had a broken handle as well.
Sam I certainly won't be be selling these with those motors in unless I want to be on rogue traders

Eugh, I had a DC14 with a little bit of rust on the motor too and it had either rust or some discoloration on it |

Mr Brown - I'm sure that there are some sellers on Ebay that WOULD sell a Dyson with those motors in, and have the cheek to say that they were "refurbed" as well - and want £80 odd quid for them too! |
