- I bought this top of the range Hoover Turbopower U2784 from a seller on eBay Germany a few years ago. It's in great condition but the motor sounded rough, so in this video I fit a new motor and demonstrate it.

Bak in the 90s I had the U2880 Turbopower 3 Autosense Permabag in that Lagoon Green Metallic colour - bought it brand new. Lovely machine, wish I still had it. Must say though, I think the TP1 looks really classy in that colour scheme, and with what you've done to it, it runs really well now too.
I think the year of those hits on your Ceefax jumper was Christmas 1985, as that was the year the Pet Shop Boys had their first hit with West End Girls.
Lovely machine Roger.the turbopower was one of the best cleaners of its period. Great work too
I enjoy these videos. It would be really good if you did a Christmas Day extravaganza again because I really enjoy watching you open all your presents but it is your choice thank you for the videos
I won’t be doing an unboxing extravaganza video on Christmas Day as I don’t have anything to unwrap, but there will be a new video.
That's a bearing problem for sure - not uncommon on these motors. There are two things about this cleaner - one, it was built for non-UK market and yet still has the royal warrant on it (that wasn't always the case, in fact I was fairly certain only the UK cleaners had the warrant), and two, although it's a "boost" cleaner, it has two fixed speed positions, as opposed one fixed and one spring-loaded that had to be held in by the user in order to obtain boosted power. I never liked those cleaners at all, because I reasoned you'd probably need the boost the most when using the tools, which is going to be ever so awkward to do, if the switch needs to be held with one hand, leaving only the other free to do the cleaning.
Her indoors will get a goblin and be bloody well grateful

Thank you for showing a repair.
It sounds like dry motor bearings, replacing them would fix it and cost less than a new motor, you’d have to buy a set of bearing pullers to remove them
The motor cost lest than new bearings and a bearing puller.
Where would you recommend getting the bearings and what puller?
You can't always find new motors, and it's a waste of a perfectly good motor. When you collect old vacuums you have to know how to repair them or you will end up with 0. Nobody will fix them anymore at any shop, and there are no parts. Take any vacuum older than 20 years into a vacuum shop (if you can find one) and they will laugh you out the door and tell you to go buy a new $300 Shark. If you don't know how to repair them when they break, you will quickly be left with nothing at all. Skills are important. @@ibaisaic
The bearings depend on what is in the vacuum and if they actually need to be replaced. Most times they just need to be flushed and de-greased and get fresh grease in there. Some will take oil and not grease. It all depends. Severe cases you will need to replace the entire bearing because they are too worn to function. Bearing pullers can be found in auto parts stores. However skateboard bearings are very similar to vacuum cleaner bearings so a bearing puller for skateboards would likely suit you better than an automotive one. @@Leoturner2009
Remember Ceefax, my grandfather got it a full two and a half years before we got it.
It looks gorgeous. Even the metallic finish looks new. I love it. Next time will be a Cadillac 🎉🎉 this Hoover sounds like a V8 you well there will be a Jaguar but same thing it’s a V8 vacuum cleaner.
It kind of does sounds something like a concept one would be sounding thank you for video
Merry christmas everyone!
The text on the back of your jumper looks a bit like code
I had one brand new loved it until the motor went in it
Sounds like a car with a bad engine
