Look and see if you can spot the problem with the vacuum motor. The dome on the vacuum was luckily not hurt. I also added a new gasket. I stuck it on the vacuum motor just like Greg taught me! JK Greg.

Weird vacuum motor problem?
I was having a weird vacuum motor problem? It seemed to work when it wanted to, but it always was pushing lots of air out of the motor. I was going to check the motor brushes anyway and noticed the seal was gone. I believe the seal wore away and caused the suction problem. So I went to Lowes and purchased some rubber gaskets.
I cut a hole in the rubber gasket and it started to work again. Yea!
