Look at the clearance between the needle and hook, making sure you push the hook away from the needle.

The shuttle can wear the spacer ring behind it and allow too much clearance so try cutting a thin cardboard ring to sit behind the spacer. I have seen this fix dozens of times on old 45k25's

There’s your problem! Way too much needle for that thread!
