I am in the process of getting it to function and had to mess up the timing to clean it enough to get it to turn over. Now it turns fairly smoothly but I can't figure out the timing. It has NO timing marks or timing pointer. You mentioned your machine didn't have timing marks in one of your posts but did not follow up on how to do the timing with no timing marks. Can you help me on this?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01146060321077214084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1152009952484302165.post-68066649364270477102015-11-27T02:25:15.620-05:002015-11-27T02:25:15.620-05:00Scott,

However, I can't find the instructions for rewiring it. Am I overlooking them? I haven't rewired a machine yet, and I'm a little nervous about it.

You wouldn't happen to be working on a pre-1920 66, would you? Right now, removing the presser foot bar is vexing me. <br /><br />KelleyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18045259907718800385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1152009952484302165.post-61435137009715015762015-01-05T18:21:43.057-05:002015-01-05T18:21:43.057-05:00Hi Bjornar,

Is there a way to know how high up or down the bar to set it?<br />I cannot start timing the machine before this is done.<br /><br />Thanbks in advance :)<br /><br />-BjornarNorbjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07343709463908094348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1152009952484302165.post-62621712159766870142014-03-10T21:23:07.045-04:002014-03-10T21:23:07.045-04:00I am so excited to find this post.
