Found a repair shop only a couple of hours away, going in next Monday.

Try size #92,138 might be too large for this machine.

You might want to check the small finger that keeps the inside of the bobbincase from turning,if it is set too close to the hook it can pinch the thread & prevent it from passing through.Run the machine by hand & watch it as the thread passes through this part.

Ok ,Is there any play in the gears that drive the hook? And have you tried timing it @ 2.2 rise?

I'll check for play tomorrow. I timed it with 2.5 (factory spec)?

Packed up and heading to the tech early tomorrow, bit of a ride, but hopefully it'll get straightened out...

I am curious about the feet movement. I had a similar issue with the feet alternative movement which was out of spec.
