I had that problem with my Eureka Ultra when I first got it. Turned out I needed a new impeller and the bearings were in sore need of greasing. If you don't use it very often, this might well be the case. My Hoover 728 is in need of it. | ||

The fan should be fairly easy to get. It'll probably be the same plastic fan the Sanitaire uses. As for a lubricant, I use white lithium grease. If it's a newer Eureka, it'll have Torx screws, so you'll need a Torx driver. | ||

I think it could be a fair bit trickier than a Sanitare type cleaner, since this is a not an old style Eureka, but an horizontal shaft Bravo style machine. From my readings about this machine, your issues are common. | ||

It sounds like you need new carbons if the motor is acting intermittent like that. My understanding is that these motors run fairly hot so the brushes burn down fairly quickly. | ||
