    I have a Viking/Husqvarna and the washers CANNOT be used on a Viking. I have a lot of problems FMQ on my Viking and have tried everything trick in the book/online/you name it and I still have trouble! It is very frustrating!

    The last time I had this problem I finally found that there was lint under the feed dogs.
