I want to thank everyone again. This board is such a helpful place and fun too!!
I took the needle plate off and cleaned the little springs and I also oiled the hook and waa laa it is much quieter and is a dream to sew with. It actually coasts the last couple of stitches and stops with the needle down. I have been piecing "Night Sky" by Jaybird Quilts. My little Midge is doing a great job.
Thanks again,
Ethel

Dave McCallum uses a light bulb. You're basically trying to kill the mold if it's the case and if it's the machine, it's probably the felt smelling a little of old and possibly somewhat "off" oil and grease.
