3 Eureka Vac’s

I don't know....the weaker motors from the 1970's were adequate in providing excellent deep down carpet cleaning. The later Eurekas with the more powerful motors seemed to have too much suction, thus causing suction lock on the carpet and too many belt breakages. Anything over 6 amps might be too strong for these uprights. I keep on hearing about Sanitaire belts breaking and I think it's because the motors are too powerful and the suction may actually be too strong.
 
I used it last night, it seems to run better, maybe it’s in my head like a car after the car wash, lol
The bulb must have burned out long ago, I don’t remember it ever working.
 
Give them a call to check before you order. I am pretty sure the 40 inch one they are selling will fit your Eureka. Your base is identical to the models listed for the bumper they are selling. Eureka did not change the base that much for these basic Dial a Nap models. It's worth a try for only 10 bucks, I think.
