I have a Kenmore Ken Cart model 116.732. I'm wanting to find out if I can retrofit an old Electrolux model XXX motor to fit, as the fans look like an Electrolux model XXX's fans. The top fan has a nut that I'm unable to remove, I've tried heating it up with a heating gun and using an air...

Hey everyone, just thought I'd update you all about my side job with Aerus, I'm doing very well. Have sold close to 13 machines now.

I have a question about my Allen 225RTC Organ in regards to the hooking up of speakers, I have 2 8ohm speakers which I've heard is required on organs. Here's a picture of the inside of the rear of the organ, I'm assuming the 2 brown cables hanging down are speaker wires.

OK. I'm thinking of running a service, sales and repair shop for Aerus Electrolux vacuum cleaners out of my home. I live in an area that has a population of close to 200,000 people. There is currently no one who is servicing the area in regard to Aerus Electrolux. I talked with an Aerus dealer...

All right guys I know this is going to sound crazy. But with common sense as to using your vacuum cleaner for this. First and foremost, when using your vacuum cleaner blower end on a tank type vacuum cleaner works best, you want to place your vacuum on a dry surface away from the bathtub water...

I have a question regarding which of these engines are better, in a Ford extended van. Also are the 4.9 straight six available in Ford 1 ton extended Ford vans? I've in the past always had the Windsor engines in my vans and probably would go with another, but mainly was wanting to find out...

I am selling/thinning down multiple machines in my vacuum cleaner collection. I just don't have time to go through the hassle of individually listing them on eBay. Nor do I have extra money to pay for eBay's seller's fees and high cost of shipping. I'm quickly losing interest in vacuums, I'm...
