Thanks, Alyce. The thread looks like what I need. There are lots of good tips and explanations there.
Well, I just checked, and overlooked one other thing that's not moving. The needle isn't moving, but the lever works fine. (Hope it's not broken.) I was so entranced with getting the knobs to work, that I didn't realize the needle wasn't moving. The left side of the knob works fine and the right side won't move still. I cleaned it again (thanks, Cari, that alcohol is much better than the kersene) and put tri-flow on it. Then, I came back after lunch and squirted it with PBblaster. Still no luck. I may have to get the needle moving before I can get that side of the knob to work.
I'm not going to work on it tomorrow. (My cousin and I are visiting my elderly quilting buddy tomorrow.) However, Tuesday, I'm going to download the manual and the service manual to my laptop, open that thread again and go to work on the machine again. Running in and out of the house to look up stuff is time consuming.
I really don't think it's broken. It just hasn't been used in a long while.
Thanks again.
