Doreen: use a screwdriver to remove the top housing (remove the screws holding the top housing on)... pull the top housing up off of the machine and reposition the spool pin and then reinstall the top housing.

Doreen: There are screws holding the top housing onto the machine. (The top housing is where the spool pin slid into). remove the screws on the top housing and pull the top housing up off of the machine. You will be able to reposition the spool pin to where it supposed to be. put the top housing back on and reinstall the screws.

you probably can't adjust the pressure on the foot, most models it is preset with no ability to adjust the pressure. Take a look at the top of the machine, left side above the needle area. If your machine has adjustable foot pressure, there will be a thumb screw of some sort on the top of the machine in this area, possible with a + and - symbol to indicate which way to turn to adjust the pressure.I have owned Elnas, Janomes and Singers and only one of them had adjusted foot pressure.

try a new needle

Sounds like the timing got thrown off. The Bobbin and top stitch have to meet in such a way that the thread creates a nice tug of war action between the two. This happens through gears and or belts that allow the two seperate motions to catch at just the right moment. If you try to sew through something really thick it puts a strain on the top action but not the bottom, thus throwing off the timing Not sure what kind of machine you have, you may be able to you-tube some instructions on how to adjust timing. Unfortunately most repair places will tell you that the machine is not worth if in unless it is a higher end model (baby lock - denim) or something. I've been in a similiar situation and was able to adjust the timing well enough that it sewed well again. Although my machine was never designed to repair the super thick denim and leather I was running through it I was able to make it work by having several different types and sizes of needles (sharps/balls) and going slow. I know it's not really a fix answer but it should get you started looking in the right direction.
