I would be concerned about any non super secured item in the hole or over it coming loose due to vibration and suction.

We find that swapping out with "washing machine cleaned" vacuum bags for the ones that are due for our front load washing machine cleaning process in our laundromat does the trick for maximum suction! Also ... we really notice that our Doyle 4 bag vacuums are better than some previous 3 bag vacuums.

Wow! Fifty words, two uImproper quotation marks, an unnecessary exclamation point, and, for some odd reason, an ellipsis, to say, "Chang the filters."

Do you guys know each other and you're just ribbing him?
That would suck if people were being inhibited to participate on this forum because of grammatical ridicule.
BTW, what's "ulmproper" and "Chang" mean to you?

Alright enough of this, who called the grammar police? MJ is just trying to help and contribute to this forum.

Changed the bags. It’s sucking a little better. I also have a plug missing in the bottom of the vacuum. Could that have something to do with loss of suction ?

Home Depot sells test plugs in plumbing isle that will fit perfectly. Probably .30 a piece. Buy a tube of silicone go around the plug and push it in. It won't come off again. If you ever have to take them off to remove vacs all you need is a razor blade.

the corks were installed 18 months ago and are still there. Don’t know how long they will last though.
