That should be o.k. I've had to retime 6 out of my 10 301's to FMQ properly and they do tend to go out more than other models. If you're not confident of your ability to diagnose this, I'm thinking a local repair person would be able to take one look at the hook to needle placement and let you know if that's the issue and give you an estimate for repair.
