All of a sudden my machine doesn't want to zig zag. It seems to work okay when I manually turn the balance wheel but when I use the foot pedal the zig zag is almost non-existant. It almost seems like the needle can't move left to right fast enough. I am also getting an occasional thread jam in the bobbin. I have tried changing the tension on the top thread and on bobbin case but it didn't fix the problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello Terry,
have you taken the top off and oiled the machine recently? have you oiled the moving parts on the needle bar recently? e-mail me
