FW issues URGENT
just got a call from the estate sale lady here in town. She is having a sale this weekend where there is a FW. Has the book, case, etc, and the machine will not sew.
Oiled it, made sure to thread the needle correctly, and she said is breaking the stitch after 5-7 stitches. Runs great, bobbin tension ok, even did the "bobbing bobbin" test, but as soon as she goes to sew,,snap..snap..snap...
any suggestions, theories, things I need to look for...I am heading over there with more fabric, newer thread, and if you can tell me what kind of needle, hopefully a NEW needle!
