I asked the owner of the repair place about 100.00 machines on sale at Joanns, he told me get moms old machine or aunty's or grandmas and let me fix that one for 80.00 and it will run great. You buy one of these 100.00 machines you'll spend more time fixing it than sewing with it.
    OOPS! MAYBE CHECK TO SEE IF NEEDLE IS IN CORRECTLY.
    SWEET MACHINE, I HAD A KENMORE FOR THIRTY YEARS AND IT IS STILL RUNNING.
