How do I change from vaccum to leaf blower?

You haven't stated the model you're referring to.. Here's a link to a Black and Decker blower vac manual, but it might not be your model as I'm having to guess due to lack of info.

I need to see the manual

Depending on your model and when it was made, there is a safety recall on these blowers

How to reverse a blower vac

You will be wasting your time. The fan creating the wind is not going to give you proper flow. It was designed to work one way. Changing wiring will not work on some motors. Also depends if its AC or DC motor.

My motor brushes at end of life for a Black and Decker electric leaf blower. Where can I get them? Black and Decker leaf hog, model BV400 type 4, Cinderson 90510850 motor. Black and Decker site no help...

Try Platt Electrical supply - 800-257-5288 (Platt.com) BLACK & DECKER #89754-01 REPLACEMENT BRUSH. It seems the entire motor head was manufactured by DeWalt and is now obsolete. I don't know if these brushes will fit, but someone there may help.
Good Luck!

Black and Decker leaf hog, worked fine last use.

I posted this solution on another similar thread, but it may pertain here.
I have this unit. Mine stopped working today after being warm on the handle the last few uses. I opened the unit up (torx 15) and smelled, then found that a fused wire coming off the motor had burned/melted/separated at a plastic plug right inside the handle. I'm not sure if it had anything to do with it, but in this same compartment of the handle there was an anti-theft strip floating around. I called BandD and they said the BV4000 type ONE has been recalled. http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml07/07005.html

My black and decker leafhog blower/vac smells like something is burning

Black and Decker has issued a recall notice for Type 1 BV4000 because "a loose connection between the unit and an extension cord can create heat, posing a possible fire hazard" Says to STOP USING and call 1-866-853-2138 to arrange for free repair. (Found info by Googling "Black and Decker Leafhog", navigate to Black and Decker website and click "Important Safety Recalls" button at bottom of page.)
