Have you talked to Brubaker's? they fix old Pfaffs. Their price may be too expensive, but they may want to buy your machine. Who knows. I know they buy broken 7550's (my machine) so they may buy other machines as well.

My Pfaff 7550 (20 years old) has done that at times from the time I bought it new. I always thought it was something I was doing, but it's a glitch in the foot pedal that I should have gotten fixed under warranty many moons ago. Now it's just part of my machine's personality, because it's not really all that bad in my case ;-).
But I can understand that yours could be worse. Just thought I'd put the foot pedal idea out in case it's something you could try.
