Default Very frustrated with my longarm

I have a Tin Lizzie longarm machine. I have been struggling with skipped stitches. I have been asking on another forum about how to help. I think they have given my all the advice they can. Maybe someone here can help. Here is a list of what I have tried.
1. I scrubbed the poles with a scotch brand scrubby.
2. I have leveled my bars.
3. I have adjusted the tension.
4. I have changed the o rings on my encoders.
5. I have cleaned the encoders, bobbin casing, wheels, and everything else I can clean.
6. I have changed my needle, straightened it, and made sure it is as far into place as it will go.
7. I have adjusted the bobbin tension.

The skips happen in the same general latitude if that makes sense, about 4 inches from the back bar.
Anyone have any ideas? I am desperate.
