Is this a common problem with these bobbin winders?? The machine is a 1909 and otherwise quite nice. Where would I look for a replacement for this, cause after I have taken it apart I see no way to really correct it other than replacement.

Thanks for any help with this.


I have had experience with that thread lever/arm tension spring !

I made a lengthy post about this very issue and included disassembly and commentary with photos. I think you have to search for my posts.
