    I would closely look at all the white cams under a magnifying glass. You could do a print and compare. You know like a finger print and then look closely at the difference. Maybe a small nick in the 3 that get ejected.

    That's what I prefer to do. I let them sit til I have
    • more patience
    • more knowledge
    • more ideas
    then pull them out again.

    While it's nice to not have a room full of busted ones, I find there's no point in rushing them. I part when I have no other options, i.e the parts to replace it aren't worth it, or it's just not a valuable enough machine, but I try til I'm out of ideas first.

    Do'nt use it for parts. It has more good then bad qualities. I feel bad you are still having probleems with 778.

    cjr,

    I went from straight stitch machines to ZZ to ZZ with cams. I will get it figured out. Just a matter of time. Don't feel bad about it. Could be as simple as needing some oil somewhere it hasn't gotten to yet.
