I use an Organ 90/14 PD. However, the metallic needles have bigger eyes. I suggest you do not thread thru your needle bar guide. That is the way I have to do when I use metallic threads because they break all the time on me. You might try loosing your upper tension a whole lot and then gradually tighten up. Try a lot of different tensions. I sincerely doubt if it is your stabilizer. There are some European brands of thread that don't sew well for me and I gave all of those away when I discovered these from Pakistan. I also don't buy the American thread anymore due to their prices. Some machines like some and other machines like other thread and some will sew all of them. And some women are just partial to some brands even when their machines aren't.
