When I was sewing the other day my fabric sucked down in to the bobbin and made a mess. I tugged, pulled back and forth, but finally unscrewed the plate and saw there were threads wrapped around a little finger like part that I had to cut out. I cleaned it out and screwed the plate back on. Now my tension is screwed up. The top thread just lays across the fabric no matter what number I put on that tension dial. I suspect I loosened the bobbin tension when tugging, but I have no idea how to tighten it on a drop in bobbin. Has anyone ever had this problem?

This video might help. About half way through she starts talking about the drop-in bobbin case. Scroll down in the text until you see the video.

If you post the make and model of your sewing machine, someone might be able to direct you to more specific instructions.
