Default Found a Featherweight at a yard sale

Found a Featherweight at a yard sale this weekend and paid $10.00 for it. It is in remarkably good condition as is the case except that the pins that hold the upper part of the latch assembly on the case have pulled out. Can someone explain or refer me to instructions for repairing this? Also, I think it needs a new foot pedal as there seemed to be a slight electrical sensation when I plugged it in and touched the fly wheel. I immediately unplugged and plugged in the foot pedal from my personal Featherweight and the sensation was gone. Any suggestions where to find a foot pedal reasonably? I have no sewing shops locally. Thanks, Ann in TN
