Found this nice little gem on the fleamarket. Everything seems to work nicely except for the part that after I take a few shots the film advance lever gets stuck. I can always unstuck it by putting the camera on M90 but it's far from ideal.
Anyone know what could cause it?

And ofcourse I ment Nikon FG camera
 
You do have batteries in it don't you?

I think the FG fires on M90 until you get to frame 1 no matter what 'mode' you have selected so perhaps it's working on M90 but not on battery power?

Figured it out, I've put the batteries upside down in it...; silly me
 
Made the same mistake on mine. The batteries just seem to go in better upside down for some reason :]
