Also the bag barely puffs up. What does this mean? I am not sure how many maps the motor has. | ||

If the disposable F&G bag is new and empty, it won't puff up for the first couple of uses.
Not sure where you could get replacement springs to secure the brush roll. Maybe someone has a pair lying around? It would not cost much to mail them to you in a protective envelope. Any collectors willing to donate to our friend in Phoenix? | ||

I had trouble with the springs a while back. Here's a link to my fix. Nicholas CLICK HERE TO GO TO Constellation86's LINK | ||

I live in El Paso. I have that name because I am hoping to move to Phoenix in early 2016, once I am done with college. | ||

The brush does not rattle, but moved a little. It was snug before I tried to get the brush out. Now, that side of the brush moves a little. I took a picture and I'll show you. | ||

It was never bent like that, but this was my first time dealing with a machine with these springs. And I could not see it attached because of the dirt that covered it. I wonder how I can fix this. It looks so old, so I might replace the spring.

shim it tight or bend the spring back. I'd shim like Constellation86 did, no risk of breaking the spring that way. | ||

I am uploading a video of it in action for you all. It should be up in an hour. | ||
