Hello again, I think the reason the entire time, why my Kirby 2C motor ran so slow was because of a shot armature. The armature got shot when I disassembled my 2C for cleaning and polishing, in the fact that the electrical clearance was damaged, the windings and or the wiring that goes to the commutator in the armature, broke in connection or got damaged. I took a look at it and sure enough the wiring to the commutator was damaged, some of it had broke in connection, which caused all the wiring to the commutator, to melt the lacquer insulating the wiring. That's why I smelled that burning electrical smell and the motor ran so slow, when I turned the motor on.
