Thank you all for the info. I have ordered parts for it. I will begin the cleaning process. I can't thank you enough for all the help I received. Thank you for the private messages with links.
The only thing I question my decision on is the foot peddle. I ordered a new one. I would like to keep it true to original but feel leary of purchasing a used pedal. I do want to use the machine. So perhaps it's wiser going the new route.
