I agree that first re-thread, next new needle, always use high quality thread ( some leave less lint than others) on a thread post holder to prevent issues with the bobbin case, and check for fuzzies in the discs--if you know how to disassemble the thread tension assembly, check the smoothness of the discs. If there is ANY catch--not butter smooth, you can use a super fine wet sandpaper to make them slick. And like BKay says, we appreciate the wisdom. I'll try the new thread path next time I pull out the 401 just to see.
