I do have the original hose, aluminum tube power head, and an aluminum tube edge or hard surface tool? Not sure on the proper names. | ||

The link...... is great. Replace all that old tubing. Tubing is standard size.....take some with you to a hardware store. That may be all it needs to start working again. If not....you have to dig deeper into that system and test gaskets for leakage. Kevin | ||

There is a secret to those tubes. Generally, the tube that connect the mechanism to the dirt inlet is the problem. Not in the tube itself, but in the brass piece the tube connects to. There's a tiny hole that runs into the inside of the dirt inlet. That tiny hole gets clogged. A bread twisty with the plastic removed, leaving the wire, is the right size to go through there and unclog it. Then replace the vinyl tube and it should 'pop open' correctly again.

Both my model G's (the household model and the hospital model) are wonderful machines with lots of sentimental value to me. Love these machines.

i sure miss mine
i still have the original hose, power nozzle and all the rest of the goodies but the machine itself has somehow disappeared. probably along with the blue eureka i used in a cleaning competition years ago. i had 3. sold 2 and kept the one that is shown with the original power nozzle.

I would..... stay away from sheet rock dust and fireplace ash. Even though the machines can handle them, they cause residual trouble.....especially sheet rock dust. Let a wet & dry vac swallow that stuff. It will be hard and that too.....but it's a W&D not a G....lol. Kevin | ||
