Bev,
If I understand correctly you are saying the thread is not staying in the 
center of your thread feed roller. This is normally due to contamination and 
may be remedied by removing it and cleaning with soap and water. When the 
rollers are clean the thread will track in the center. My MT for t's went 
from 4 to 5 when I put the new  rollers in, but am only using one 2.0 oz. 
cutaway.
