Obscure parts are in pockers of junks stores. There are pockets of old parts for consumer items in many old junky stores. Often many are not worth placing on the internet, or there is no clear list, just a mess of old boxes. An actual image or the part number is not what many junky stores get...

Control if low bag pops open soon. If HIGH you get more Stuf That "setting" really sets the spring level that is used to determine when the pressure drop across the filter is "too high"; ie when the door pops open. There are two pressure taps that are "looked at"; ie sampled. One is a static...

The other side of the coin; Stores have specs It selling replacement items the spec can be dictated by one major vendor , and the maker thus makes the bags all the same so there are not two different line items. Folks who work in retail are not often PH's or rocket scientists. A replacement...

Maybe not all bronze/tan G's use a bigger motor? Interesting comment about tan and turq motors being different. Here I have taken both color types apart, but really did not notice any difference, but in all fairness was not focused on subtle things. *** Maybe not all bronze/tan G's use a...

bronze maybe a few percent is my wild guess My wild guess based on all the G's I have seen is only a few percent are bronze

Almost 10 million G's were made! The bronze G with PN-1 and hose I got via ebay was 60 bucks with shipping a month ago. In turquoise I paid 20 for one 3 years ago at a thrift store with a decent hose.

What is the Bronze G's serial? what is the bronze G''s serial number? Mine here is U59484H The serial is on the left sidealuminum, one has the bag door open. I am not looking for stolen vacs, just wondering how elecrolux's serial numbers work. ie like does my of your serial id it as a bronze...
