The floppy Moving plate/gate is bent Down too far. Look at mine. I think you Just need to bend the stop underneath to hold the plate/gate higher. Also, your arch rod isn't captured at the white post in your picture, but I don't think that is contributing to your problem.
Thanks guys for the quick responses. I bent the gate latch out further like Jethro's and I checked the playfield level and sure enough, it's off. The back left leg castor needs to be raised a bit. Must have got off kilter moving the machine back and forth while working on the machines next to it. Garage floor may dip a tiny bit where the game is sitting now vs where it was previously.
