Thank you so much, skyangel. I have a 6440 that I bought brand new in 1970. It's the brown one and I've always loved it. I bought a used machine around 2002 from a friend that was retiring and updating. That one's a 1+. It does embroidery so I use it when I'm doing something for my great grandbaby. I knew this one was older and I wasn't even sure it would work but figured I would take a chance........ it runs but I can tell it needs some cleaning up. In the trouble shooting section of the manual it says to put kerosene in the oil holes and run for a few seconds, then oil it so I may try that.... but I'll try just oil first
