I've got a problem that I've never encountered before. I fixed a badly mistimed hook, but then this started happening. 

As you hopefully can see inr the video, the feed is pushing forward and then back with each stitch. Does anyone know why it is doing that? Thanks in advance

@AlainaZHave you checked to make sure your safety clutch isn't kicked out?Always check it b4 re-timing your hook.Be sure the A & B marks

line up.

Well, I haven't spent much time on it so I can't say, since it was donated to us in not great condition. I am certified only by Juki, and I find most other brands to be unnecessarily frustrating. But a lot of that is because 95% of my experience is Juki, so I'm biased. 

But yeah, I've been sour on other brands. Poor or non-existent documentation, difficult to get parts. The machine fell over in transport and several pieces broke and Singer says they don't have replacements. We're selling this and replacing it with a refurbished Juki LS-1341

I have a couple of singer 211 for parts and one I'm trying to get running.So far I can't get the hook to stay in time. It keeps getting 180 degrees out of time. the parts machines I have are Singer 211U867B61 and a 211G155. I am trying to get the other 211U867B61 running. Where should the needle bar be when the B mark is lined up? My needle bar has just started moving down when the B mark lines up.when the A mark is lined up the needle bar is in position to line the hook up with the needle and the bottom mark on needle bar is lined up at the bottom of the bushing it moves in.

Have you checked your safety clutch as noted above?
