I have tighten the bobbin loosen the top tension and have played with it for hours. the bobbins is still showing up on top. What do I need to do? Batting is hobbs 80/21

What sort of bobbin are you using?  Is it one of the magnetic pre-wounds, or is it a metal bobbin you wound yourself?  Do you have a Towa gauge?  If you can't get your bobbin tension tight enough and you're using a metal bobbin, check your backlash spring in the bobbin case.  You may need to bend the little arms of it out a bit.  That will provide you with a little more resistance.
