I had an issue with Vacuum-assisted toilet. The problem was someone left the bottom plastic cover on the wax donut. The toilet crushed the plastic, and shrunk the outlet circumference. I installed a new bare donut, problem solved. No more clogging. If it's a donut with rubber liner, it's to be left on. If it's the same plastic material all around the donut. Remove all the plastic, it's a bare donut without rubber seal or flange.
They look similar in packaging.
