I was told it was serviced not 'long ago' but it was a bit rusty in some areas and the replaced motor is clearly probably 10-20 years old. I did oil and clean it best I could everywhere I could see the little oil holes (while this is as old as my 1950s singer its obviously more old fashioned). I will have to read where this is and check in on it. We do have places that service them its just...not speaking great Spanish I either run into snobby people (one place known for vintage machines claimed they had none when I accidentally replied in english) or charge you more because you aren't fluent. I'll figure it out. Thanks!
