Default Tension screw on 99

I fixed a 99 today. Love when stars align. It was the timing and I only have fixed this a few times and always muddle thru. But it picks up the thread beautifully now.

I need a replacement tension screw on the bobbin - its missing and although the timing is fixed - its not stitching well because the bobbin tension is too loose. Where oh where do I find this?

Lastly, the machine lights surges each time the foot pedal is engaged. When I swap out with a different foot pedal all is fine. Should I take apart the pedal and clean it or just buy a new pedal from Sew Classic.

Thanks for your help. The machine owner - sews moccasins - so I am going to hand her a well oiled working 99 for a pair! And the weather is getting colder up here in Canada.
