Great videos concerning the Mytee Lite, Phil. Thank you so much. I follow your videos, and I too share a small detailing business like you. I wanted to tell you that in any case you find you are without a gasket, but want to temporarily see if your problem is fixed, you can simply recreate any gasket like the one you needed by cutting it out in cardboard, or like that plastic you’d find used in say, political yard signs…that make sense? I’ve had my Mytee for 3 years. My pump is bad. My switches are rusted. My wires inside recently smelled like they’d gotten hot, and I’ll Tell ya, this is the one piece of equipment I routinely do cleanings on, and preventive maintenance. While I love its functionality, it longevity has been rather disappointing for what I paid for it. But not every specific piece of machinery lives the life we want it, while others do great, like my Prolux Garage Vac. Go figure. Thanks for sharing all you do.

Great jib. I'd shorten the power cord enough to get rid of the patch you have on it. I believe you upgraded from a 2 stage to a 3 stage vac. That's why the vac is an inch thicker.
Thanks. Yeah the cord at the base of the machine is just frayed from use. I’m going to fix that soon. Yes it is a 3-stage vac! I didn’t even realize it. It’s the same model number and the only one I could find. Well it’s more powerful now!! Thanks for sharing!
I’m back lol. It’s time to upgrade my vac. I’m pretty sure I have the same mighty 8070 lite. The new model has the drain port which ours doesn’t. It looks like the new vacuum has a name of C302A 3-Stage HP Vacuum Motor the one you linked is off Amazon and I found the hp on the mytee site.
Hey... Great advice... I just bought the same model on ebay.. Don't know if I got robbed at $655 but im gonna dump another $195 into it to make it a stage 3 like you did... Btw... I love your videos
Miranda how is it holding up since you did this install? I heard its not good for the inside wiring because of higher amp draw that the 3 stage requires.
Hi Its running great with no problems! I guess if people are worried about the wiring they can just rewire it with heavy gauge wire, I think it would be pretty simple.
Phil Thanks for this video I have an original MYTEE S300 TEMPO no heat, several years ago I left in garage must of still had water in line, I believe the pump my be damaged. I still have suction but can't inject water. So now I may try to replace pump myself DIY style, lol looks as if it may be a shur flo pump (yours). Think I may have bought from AUTOGEEK....BUT MY UNIT IS LIKE THIS ONE IN LINK: socalwaxshop.com/tools-equipment/extractors/mytee-s300-tempo-spotter-carpet-extractor/
MyteeLite needs to pay you a commission. That was some great advertising for them. Well done on the repair! Looks like a good solid machine!
😁that would be awesome! Maybe Myteelite will send me some machines to try out!! #Myteelitesponsorship

Great video Phil ! I want to upgrade to that extractor as soon as the moneys right ! And great tan line by the way 😂
It’s an awesome machine! It’s totally worth it. Thanks!!🤣🤣🤣

niceeeee.came from Kleve Germany came grocery store Opel dealer and a dollar store picked up some car products
Tough to tell... But was the power cord fraying near where it enters the machine?
Yeah it is. I need to fix that also.
Hello Phil, my extractor does not draw water, what can I do?
Hi. You mean ours not extracting or when you press the trigger no water comes out?
Sorry i commented on the water pump video too, but was there enough suction with the bad sound?
It’s ok. No the suction power was gone
Miranda Detailing i think im going to have to get the brushes redone or buy another pump
We have the same model (older version) was the old vacuum a 2 or 3 stage vacuum?
The new Motor was 3 stage I believe
3 rings on the gray body shows it is a 3 stage unit. Good upgrade!

Awesome! Thats a great deal, these machines are a little pricey but awesome!
Did you ever make the upgrade to 3 stage Brendan? I heard its not good for the inside wiring because of higher amp draw that the 3 stage requires.
Where did you find this model of Mytee? Can't seem to find it on their website
Hi, I bought it back in 2009, it’s the older Myteelite II 8070. They since upgraded to the new model.
@@MirandaDetailing :( too bad because this model was easy to carry up the stairs. Newer models does not have handlers.
Yeah I agree. I like the smaller version I have. The new 8070 is a little bulky.
Does it have more power with the new vacuum motor??
It feels like it does!
You had a 2 stage vacuum motor before but you got a 3 stage. I think you got the 3 stage LA.
Yup that’s right.
Miranda how is it holding up since you did this install? I heard its not good for the inside wiring because of higher amp draw that the 3 stage requires.
Hi Its running great with no problems! I guess if people are worried about the wiring they can just rewire it with heavy gauge wire, I think it would be pretty simple.
@@MirandaDetailing I appreciate the response bud!
the vac motor was bigger because you removed a two stage vac and replaced it with a tree stage one
Ah cool. I figured that. Thanks
TA DA!
