As I said before, I had oiled the upper and lower parts of the needle shaft and that didn't stop the sound.....but I just had to do the 2,000,000 stitch maintenance, and it says to put 24 drops of oil in the channel so, I put in about 32, (since the machine has been running some big designs lately (60,000+ stitches). I let the machine run on that needle with a test design and the sound went away after just a few stitches. Woohoo! :-D Thanks guys! =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
