  1. thanks. it looks like the problem is that the spring is pushing the tension release lever out too far. i am trying to adjust how the spring sits, but their doesn't seem to be a flat spot or proper spot for it to be seated on the inside of the machine.
  2. thanks for your help! my singer 31 has always done this and i somehow got the idea it was normal in my singer 31, the needle bar connecting link (43997) is giving the tension releasing lever (43944) a little bump each time the needle goes down. the machine still works but it's enough of a bump to see the tension discs release a little bit for every stitch. i wonder what i have to adjust to stop this from happening. it looks like the spring (12329) is pushing the tension release lever out too far and into the path of the needle bar connecting link.
  3. i just bought a consew 206rb second-hand and i have a related question: should the 206rb be releasing the top tension for every stitch to let a bit more thread through? my singer 31k does, but the 206rb doesn't (although it still sews well). part #9 lifts up for every stitch. should it be pushing part #11 up with it? thanks!
