    A Thread to talk and ask questions about Kirby’s

    This is a thread that I started to talk about Kirby’s mainly, first question where does the air from exhaust vent take air from? I see where it comes out but where does the air go in to cool the motor? This question applies from the Generation 3 All up to the new Avalir.

    Does Anyone Restore the Kirby G series?

    I know this thread Is preety much dead but If I was to buy the power switch online would someone put it in for me? The DIY Instructions seem a little bit hard for me, mainly moving the Techdrive pieces around. -Bryce

    My small project to restore a Kirby Sentria
