My spring isn't geat and its only between the side and the end of the lever, When I rotate the lever the spring compresses slightly. It doesn't and wont affect sewing at all Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..

Members DrmCa Posted January 18, 2022 Members Report Posted January 18, 2022 See if you can improvise a replacement out of a BIC pen spring. The size looks about right unless I am over/underestimating the diameter.

Members Jeff51 Posted January 18, 2022 Members Report Posted January 18, 2022 The red stuff is felt that is an oil wick - oiling point. I made the mistake of thinking it was some kind of leftover fluff. I had to make a new one. Here's a link to a youtube video. All the Best, Jeff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNdDlOA_bo0 Quote
