CowboyBob Report post Posted December 17, 2012 Champions have a part just above the shuttle that looks like a hatchet this is called a splitter,just above it is a little part called a loop opener check & see how much play(left to right) this has when starts to move to the right. Usually they are loose,either the roller or cam is worn. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markbird Report post Posted December 18, 2012 thank you it doesnt seem to be loose but the thread is awful close it doesnt look like there is much room for it to split the thread im wandering if a larger thread size would help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowboyBob Report post Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) A larger size might help,what size ru using? On a Champion as your finding out you can turn it slowly by hand,watch & usually figure out the problem . Edited December 18, 2012 by CowboyBob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
