Default Do we have a 15 clone Doctor in the house?

My SEWMOR 202 came several days ago and I've been cleaning and working on it. It's good cosmetically but has a mechanical problem I can't find.

Picture a 15 clone, when it runs there is a knocking sound and the stitch regulator lever bounces up and down and side to side at each knock. The faster you run the machine the worse it gets. Eventually the lever will begin to work it's way up till the stitches just stop.

I've had all the plates off, had it on it's back, on it's front, on it's end and turned the hand wheel by hand as I looked and can't for the life of me see what is doing it.

It definitely has something to do with the stitch length parts. Something is binding and I can't see it.

So, has anyone had this problem with a 15 clone and fixed it? If so ..... HELP!

Oh by the way, this is basically the same problem I've had with the EDISON 15 clone. They are all but identical inside.
I actually have 5 15 clones, and three are the same internally, the other two are different from all the others.

I don't have any pics yet as I have no idea of what parts to take the pics of.
