    Kirby Motor Sound

    The Older kirbys will have slight buzzing sound from armature and older motors take a little longer to wind down. The fans move more air than and non metal fan. The secondary fan on 4 amps are more efficient but they're pushing 4 amp motor instead of 3 amp.

    508 serial number timeline of production based off of serial number and armature date

    He Also says he had a g6 fully restored he'd take $200 for. I'm guessing shipping would be $100 offer $175 plus shipping an amazing g6 from him. He will ship I've bought a few things from Jim.
