Well, to make a long story short. A friend attended a Juki class from an "expert". The expert said to oil your walking foot because of the moving parts. Well. It sounded good to me, my walking foot was squeaky. So, I guess what either the expert didn't say or the friend didn't say. Wipe away any metal shavings that might be up in the foot. The foot ran like a dream, till it dripped. The corn starch worked like a dream. I don't know if it was the fact that it was fine white powder or if it absorbed the oil and I wiped it away with the toothbrush. But, it worked, Thank you selm, cornstarch is now in my sewing essentials.
