Default Little Genie Magic Bobbin Washers, and what to do about a rattling bobbin case

Does anyone here use these little Teflon washers?

If so are they worth the 92¢ each or are they a waste of money?

The reason I ask is my HOTHERs' ( HA-1 / 15 Clone ) bobbin case rattles so bad it drives me nuts. I've tried several bobbin cases in it and they all rattle. New or used, don't make any difference.
I worked on it this afternoon and found the part that holds the hook in place to be moving rotationally. This didn't help any and when I got it tightened up that lessened the rattle, but didn't eliminate it.

Any other ideas on how to quiet this old lady down would be appreciated.
