Thanks for all the replies. I got lucky, my son came for a visit from Texas and between the two of us, we got the timing issue straight. I also discovered that the shuttle carrier was not riding close enough to the chase and we fixed that. Now, it does make stitches but, I am working on a top tension problem. Fix one thing, another goes wonky! This machine was free and when I got it, it was a door stop. It is a learning experience LOL. When I get it sewing good, then will think about making it pretty again. For now, I simply cleaned heck out of it and oil, oil, oil.
