The spring tends to flatten out over time and allow too much space, resulting in the click-click or clack-clack. You can tighten up by bending the spring out a bit; but be careful, if you bend too much you will have issues with thread not getting though and breaking. Or, you can always just replace the spring with a new one, Singer part number 125298. I'm not a professional, this is just what has worked on my machines.
My mothers old HOTHER 15 clone has that annoying clicking sound. I'll bet that is a good place to look. Hopefully the 15-91 or other 15 adjusters manual specs will work on a JUKI made clone.
