I need some guidance please. I found a featherweight in the garbage at the curb a few streets over in my hood. I was fiddling with the latches on the case when a man comes out of the garage and tells me I am welcome to it, but it's broke. He said it doesn't have any power. I said I like to try and see if I could maybe get it to sew. He carried it to my car for me. I have two questions. He said he thought the motor was bad. If I have no power can I just assume it's the motor and replace it or are there other things I should look for first. Secondly...I am a 301 girl I have 7 of them. I know they are simialr to the FW in many ways. I have a couple of donor 301's as well. Can I put a 301 motor on this FW or will that not work? If so where can I find a tutorial on that? Any advise will be greatly appreciated.
