The needle seemed like it was making a louder than normal noise. I quit using it and tried another and the noise was normal. Now after taking a day off I was using the machine and it now seems that all the needles are loud. Something is off but i don't know what. I looked for the presser foot to be hitting something, Greased the cam, oiled all the rods top and bottom, and oiled the rails. I seems something is out of wack. BTW this is 2004 big red. Thanks ahead for all the help.
