The XR-7 repair manual does not provide diagnostics for an erratic shutter condition. My shutter tester shows the high speeds running erratically slow from 50% to 100%. Is this a dirty magnet situation? If so, how do I clean the shutter magnet?

You have to completly disassemble camera to get access to the shutter. Need to sending it to a repair shop. I know few places if you want me to recommand some.
