I wonder if there are electric cords/foot pedals with the three prong plug that is enterchangable with the 99?? Maybe someone could let me know via a pm. I also need manuals for her too. :) Thanks for any help.
I forgot to mention, I got her for $11.50. But she needs work! Sharon I am attaching some pictures of her :) |

I need advice--Has anyone ever used a product call Evaporust?? I have a faceplate that is completely rusted and the little spring coil that is part of the tension assembly is welded to the faceplate. Any suggestions??? The little coil is on the left side about 1/3 way from the top.
Thanks, Texas Jan |

Hi Jan
I'm pretty sure my husband uses that in his woodshop for rusty old chisels and blades. A quick trip just now into the Temple of Doom and I couldn't see it. I'll ask him about it later this evening.

Oh Texas Jan, your poor little machine is truly rusted. Hopefully, someone will know what to use. I look forward to seeing it when you have it restored and running. Quite an endeavor at this point, huh? :-D

Randa, same thing happened to me, Billy kindly set me strait, thought Id pull my hair out. each time u remove the bobbin case or the cover plate make sure the little "finger" on the bobbin case is caught in the slot on bottom of the case. not something you would notice! Also, just wanted to say that tonight I was trying to finish some "doggie dudds" for donation to humain society annual MUTT STRUT. using my janome cause it was handy. that machine REFUSED to sew the velcrow strips on for me. i threaded, rethreaded, tore bobbin area apart and gave it a good cleaning, after one frustrating hour, i got out the 201, and WHALA!!! a few minutes later, they are done. I love that machine!
