Hello, my question is my machine keeps bending needles at full speed, works ok at slow, it keeps hitting the needle tread pic up, which forces the timeing gear to jump a couple ov teeth so i have to keep resetting the timeing, the needle size is a 16, i suspect a worn drive arm that drives the cog.the machine is a brother vx-1125.
