Jumpy liner

[Bigmuff]

I recently bought a national swing gate aluminum machine..It is super light so i wanted to use it as a liner. I didnt noticed at first but it had no capacitor on it .. so i took the coils off and replaced them with coils from my inkcraft j frame liner, smoothed things out a bit. The needle would jump all over the place when set as a liner. its better now but when i used it before i changed the coils the lines looked like ass and i had to switch machines.. anyone know things that may cuase that .. I have never had a machine so jumpy.. is it teh light frame?

I'm guessing it has more to do with the length of the a-bar than the coils, etc, like the nipple comes out too far. For some reason your needle is hitting the tube in a place where it shouldn't, or it's just not sitting flat at the tip. Try bending your needle more or something.

Also, I'm pretty sure you're a scratcher. All of your pictures look like they were takin in some dark bedroom. The only reason I'm not deleting that post is because it's still pretty vague. I'm not going into detail. And I don't want you f@#king people up too badly. You really need to go work in a real shop with real artists that can help you with things like that.
