Psychonurse- I bought it from an OSMG. Went to get a belt I needed and made him an offer he accepted!

decals, are kind of gaudy looking. Besides, the machine is not the workmanship/quality of the original.

Nancy, I'm confused on this one. I think the "motor number ... E143658" quoted in the ad is a typo and should be "model number". If that's the case then this is a Singer but model numbers starting with "E" have been lost. I think I'll send them an email and ask for verification.

oHHHHHH, Miriam, I am so sorry you are suffering.
How precious, though, for your grandchild to wonder if you were melting. Hope your suffering comes to an end very soon. :-( :-( :-(

Also: my DH is wanting to pull the motor off the 15-91 which seems to work fine and clear out all the "gunk". While he is kinda mechanical I am leaning to adding grease and oil and letting it alone before pulling the pot off. What do you all think?
And finally, my book for the 15-91 says to put 1/2 a tube of Singer motor grease in the holes. How much grease does that come to in today's terms and who sells the proper grease?
thanks a lot I know someone will have the answers! :lol:

Here is the Sew Classics link to refurbishing the motor: http://blog.sew-classic.com/2009/02/...hats-that.aspx
I only use the Singer sewing machine grease, lubricant.

Lee, very nice 99! Those 99s are great little work horses.
