try these suggestions
1.check needle to see if it bent-roll needle on flat surface & see if it roll true
2.check to see if thread is coming off thread take-up lever
3.check the thread tenison
4.check for lint in the bobbin case area
5.check for loose thread in the bobbin case area
6.check to see if the bobbin is bent or warped
Try inserting the bobbin in the reverse direction. Most machines take a bobbin clockwise or counterclockwise and it can make a difference. Also try a new needle, a bad needle is often the problem believe it or not.
This will happen if the bobbin is put in the wrong way around - I believe the thread should be going in a clockwise direction as you face it. (If this is the way you have it, try the other way!)
i had the same problem it was stored in a garage (lots of heat) and i had a plastic bobbin tons of thread on the bobbin side so i bought new ones (brother brand) same problem
my friend pointed out the brand of bobbin makes a difference
so what the hek a couple more dollors before i toss the machine and it worked when i bought singer brand bobbins
the heat must have shrank my first ones (like a shrinky dink )
