Hi all - I recently sold It, and wasn't sure how to remove the post. But I did get the message! Machine is sold Thank you.

Thanks! Makes sense. With #69 I can hear it "snap" as it releases which means it will not have consistent tension as it pulls - probably causing tension inconsistencies.

I'm also very curious about the extra horn in red! I reclaimed two used Mitsubishi 4170s and restored them. One Rotary hook had the extra horn, one did not. Both sew fine. The Horn seems to keep the top thread loop tighter longer until it slips off of the horn. It even sounds different when it is sewing as you can her it snap when it releases vs. the rotary hook without the horn. But it is difficult to see any noticeable differences in stitch quality when sewing. Can anyone comment on the pros/cons of having/not having this horn? I though it might have something to do with auto trimmers and the placement of the threads for the moving knife? Surely someone must know!

Hello! Were you able to order the parts and how much were they? I have a couple Mitsubishis and I found the same problem for some selected parts.

Pfaff 141 Roller Feed 1964 with original receipt Originally bought the machine for the table for my 145, but after cleaning it up and finding the original receipt I thought it must be worth something to someone! It appears all parts are original, including the box, pan and lifter, thread stand and mount, the rollers and gear puller. It even has Pfaff needles. It is in excellent condition with what appears is little to no wear. The person I purchased it from has had it for decades said it was used to se leather patches on custom suites. Been sitting in storage for many years. Works well, no problems at all. Original receipt detailing all the parts. I have another receipt with more parts. Also has the Pfaff lamp I'll take some more pictures of. Any questions, videos let me know! Not sure what its worth, I'd really just like it to go to someone who would really appreciate it for what it is. Price is nominally $600.
