    Thanks for the replies everyone. It is very hard to offend me so if I dont like something, or if I am unsure, life has taught me to just overlook it unless I feel I just absolutely have to say something. It was a hard lesson to learn, lol. My bad bf choices over the years have taught me alot...

    Thanks guys. I appreciate the info from everyone. I dont need the large poster, just the 8x11 I could print out. It isnt really a big deal. I just thought of it and so I figured I would ask. I dont use paypal anymore so I will have to figure out how I want to pay for one. By the way, didnt...

    Hi Guys, I have a favor to ask. I have only been on here a few months so I hope someone will help me out instead of me having to search the archives, lol. I used to have a printout of one of those model historys of the kirbys like electrolux has, but I lost it some time ago. I dont need it...

    Kirby G6 Diamond

    I doubt it needs a new transmission. take off the bag, nozzle, etc. and if you know how to take the metal top off (two screws in front and two in back-youll have to pop off the plastic trim around the switch.) look at the spring that the handle attaches too, its probably just loose or shifted...

    late 60s Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80

    whew! thats a relief Thanks so much for that info. I had thought of the safety switch before, but when I turned that thing on it was so crazy i thought it might burst into flames so I only ran it about 3 seconds, lol. I am relieved, since I know now the motor is probably fine. I will get...

    late 60s Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80

    safety switch? I bet thats it. I never thought of it till you said that, but the safety switch has a crack in the back of it, and where one of the wires plugs in something is wrong on the inside and it doesnt hold the wire right. It has always luckily worked until last time I took it apart to...

    late 60s Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80

    Nice machine. I have the same model with all the boxes and all the attachments and shampooer that were never used. Mine always ran perfectly but last time i turned it on, it had a real slow sound and had a burning smell, so its pretty much dead. i took it apart and the brushes and all look...
