transmission There are nylon gears in the transmission, however hardly ever fail. The shaft that runs through the unit where the pulley is has the same bearings used in each side as the agitator brush. If the black pulley spins fine with no play, they are probably O.K. There are two spools...

Spring Bingo

agitator holder spring The spring that you need is not like a coil spring correct? It is more like a U shape bail spring. These are the same springs they use on the Hoover 28 and 29, and probably others. I have a parts diagram for the model 14, 28, and 29, The springs are all listed with...
