The only problem is I think the tension spring, the little wire thing that comes from the tension device is bent or mis shapen as it's not in the right position to catch the thread as it goes up and through the thread uptake lever. <br />Do you have another picture maybe that shows the way the wire is bent better? I can't see the tension wire in the scanned manual instructions I have. <br />My machine runs so well and I have not yet sewn a single seam with it yet. lol, it's so frustrating. <br />Cattrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07291487220133926123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218003.post-41583830408364600072011-01-30T18:52:25.406-08:002011-01-30T18:52:25.406-08:00Yay for a quick and easy resolution of the tension...Yay for a quick and easy resolution of the tension problem!<br />I was wondering if you had given this lovely sewing machine a name...
