I have a Konica A4 that takes nice pictures but..... After taking each picture it will advance 2nd or 3rd frame before stopping. Anyone else have this problem? Is there a fix?

I had a Yashica GSN which did this. On that camera, I removed the top plate and put the wind lever back on, then wound the lever a few times, observing the mechanism from above. I was able to see the problem (a small lever was not engaging in the wind system), and a tiny drop of oil freed it up.
